The workweek and weekend are those complementary parts of the week devoted to labour and rest respectively. The legal working week (British English), or workweek (U.S. English), is the part of the seven-day week devoted to labour. In most Western countries it is Monday to Friday. The weekend comprises the two traditionally non-working days in the seven-day week. What constitutes the working week is mandated either by law or custom. In Christian tradition, Sunday is the "Lord's Day" and the day of rest and worship. Jewish Shabbat or Biblical Sabbath lasts from sunset on Friday to the fall of full darkness on Saturday. The French Revolutionary Calendar had ten-day weeks and allowed decadi, one out of the ten days, as a leisure day.
The present-day concept of the weekend first arose from the Dies Solis (Day of the Sun) decreed by Constantine and from Biblical Sabbath. The weekend in Western countries comprises Saturday and Sunday, when most employees do not have to work. The Christian Sabbath itself was just one day each week, but the preceding day (the Jewish Sabbath) also came to be taken as a holiday in the twentieth century.
Looking through my window up
At you in your doorway,
I can't believe this is happening.
Everynight we say goodbye
And everynight you almost cry,
But now it won't be everynight.
I can see you on the weekends,
but I'm not sure if that's enough.
And I pray we'll stay together,
But I don't think that we need luck.
Think of me when I am not around.
If seeing is believing,
Then I'm sure that this will work.
ICQ and AOL but it will still be hard at first.
No more calling you real early
Just to hear your voice.
Believe me that I love you,
But I have no other choice.
I'll see you when I can,
But it might be hard to get home.
And I promise you Christmas,
But the rest I just don't know.
Think of me when i am not around
One more time, losing my mind. Here I go again.
I'm sorry I could not be here for you all the time.
And then the last kiss goodbye you smile and wipe your tears away.
