Track 7: Tuesday Afternoon

You were wearing your favorite jacket
and a black cap was hugging your head
you smiled at me as I opened the door
baby, tell me, what were you here for?

You called my name as you slowly walked
and I stood there frozen, couldn't even talk
my heart started beating so loud but slow
my whole system was full of sorrow.

'cause today might be the last time
need to pretend that I am fine
'cause baby, I don't wanna show you
at least until you go.

Chorus 1
On a Tuesday afternoon
what a lonely afternoon
I handed you an orange paper bag
full of sweets and chocolates you always love
on a Tuesday afternoon
our last afternoon
I started crying when you turned your back
baby, tell me, when will you come back?

I was wearing my favorite t-shirt
the print showed what my love was worth
I can't say good bye
please do not ask me why
baby, tell me the truths and the lies.

'cause today might be the last time
I'm gonna see your face
I don't know when will be the next time
my heart would beat this way.

Chorus 2
On a Tuesday afternoon
what a lonely afternoon
I handed you an orange paper bag
full of sweets and chocolates I always hate
on a Tuesday afternoon
our final afternoon
I started crying when you turned your back
baby, tell me, when will you come back?

baby, tell me, are you coming back?

And... as promised (on my important notice in Eomma (2023) last December 20, 2023), here's Agori's lullaby. Like the rest of her demos, naka-private din po ito sa SoundCloud account ko, pero this time, I'm gonna drop the link here for all readers to listen to whenever you want. Exclusive to this song only until further notice.

Please listen responsibly. I'm very kuripot—and scared!—of sharing my old songs with anyone in fear of getting plagiarized, because this has happened to me before in college—someone copied my poem and published it in their school paper. (Take note: published din iyon sa school paper namin huhu). So please, please, please... take care of Agori's lullaby.

Ito po ang masakit na huling pagkikita nina Adam at Agori. Oo, masakit... pero happy listening, everyone!
