Counting Crows is a rock band that became extremely popular in 1993 following the release of their debut album "August and Everything After" featuring the hit song "Mr. Jones." The band was formed by singer Adam Duritz and guitarist David Bryson (both former members of The Himalayans) in San Francisco in 1991. Counting Crows originally performed as an acoustic duo, playing gigs in and around Berkeley and San Francisco. After adding other members, the band was signed to Geffen Records. Counting Crows, with their intimate and melancholy approach, quickly achieved a large fan base among Generation X alternative rock fans who were looking for something different from the raging guitars of the Seattle music scene.

Barely out of Tuesday Lyrics
Counting Crows
I woke up wednesday morning
Staring at the ceiling
Hoping for deliverance
From the distances in you.
This room feels like an oven
Somewhere south of nowhere
And north of nothing.
Im barely out of tuesday
Seen seven hours of wednesday
I guess Ive found new friends
Maybe you could leave the light on for me.
Cant you see her
Waiting there down by the sea?
Theres a light on,
But the locks in the door for me
If you see me coming home,
Turn me away.
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.
You get me at a distance.
Fifty-two weeks later,
Theyre still staying.
Standing in my basement.
Making my way
Waiting for the telphone
To deliver me away.
I left from minnesota
Where the winters getting colder
Keep the locks changing
Maybe you could leave the light on for me.
Cant you see her waiting there down by the sea?

If you see me coming home,
Turn me away.
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.
The farthest distance
Getting around you to me
Whats the point of all this patience?
Its not your nature
To just keep what you need.
You got some pictures of me.
I woke up wednesday morning,
Sometime wednesday evening,
Hoping for a piece of something easy to believe.
When you live out on the border
Of everything and nothing
Theres nothing but waking and dreaming.
Im barely out of tuesday.
Theres no one to receive me,
And nothing is changing.
Maybe you could leave the light on for me.
Cant you see her
Waiting there down by the sea?
Theres a light on,
But theres nobody there for me.
If you see me coming home
Turn me away
cause everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.
