Love You till Tuesday Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just look through your window, look who sits outside
Little me is waiting, standing through the night
When you'll walk out through your door I'll wave my flag and shout

[Chorus 1]
Oh, beautiful baby
My burning desire started on Sunday
Give me your heart and I'll love you till Tuesday

[Verse 2]
Who's that hiding in the apple tree, clinging to a branch
Don't be afraid it's only me, hoping for a little romance
If you lie beneath my shade, I'll keep you nice and cool

[Chorus 2]
Oh, beatiful baby
I was very lonely till I met you on Sunday
My passion's never-ending and I'll love you till Tuesday

[Verse 3]
Let the wind blow through your hair, be nice to the big blue sea
Don't be afraid of the man in the moon, because it's only me
I shall always watch you until my love runs dry

[Chorus 3]
Oh, beautiful baby
My heart's a flame, I'll love you till Tuesday
My head's in a whirl and I'll love you till Tuesday
Love, love, love, love you till Tuesday
Love, love, love, love you till Tuesday

[Outro]
Well, I might stretch it till Wednesday

About

“Love You Till Tuesday” is Bowie’s second single from his self-titled debut album. It wasn’t very successful commercially despite having a few favourable reviews.
But songs like these were very important for Bowie. Later on, while recording Hunky Dory, songs like “Kooks” and “Fill Your Heart” recycle “Love You Till Tuesday”’s cheerful vibe.

Bowie’s 1969 showpiece film Love You till Tuesday took its name from the song, which also featured over the opening credits.

It was Recorded initially on 25 February 1967 and re-recorded on 3 June and released on the 14th of July 1967.
