For a Rainy Afternoon Lyrics by Daisy Veacock

2023

[Verse 1]
Are you free to meet on Friday?
I'll pick the place, you set the time
He said he'd pack me a bag if I promised to stay in line
Bailed and so we push it off till Sunday
The new job starts in a week
I've been filling the time and the days we didn't speak
And so you pour the tea instead of looking at me
In a cafe on a road in a place we've now stopped with
In posh cashmere coats instead of hands 'round our throats
We'll be friends just until it's goodbye
Then strangers again in the blink of an eye
[Chorus]
You know I thought that this might happеn
But I felt more like a distraction
Or a book you'd savе for a rainy afternoon
You know I thought that we'd maybe do this
But I can't pretend I wasn't clueless
After goodbye from Southfields on a rainy afternoon
[Verse 2]
You'll ask and I'll say that the gig went great
But I played all the sad songs by mistake
And I cried at the end, but I try to pretend it's not about you
When you asked if I was alright getting home
I lied 'cause at that point, I just wanted to go
I caught the bus back alone went past the pub I wish I hadn't shown you
Where you spilt your G&T 'cause you were looking at me
And you'd choke at the joke, I'd cry laugh as I made it
Your afternoon smoke hit the back of my throat
Stayed on the train just to hold off goodbye
Now we're strangers again in the blink of an eye
[Chorus]
You know I thought that this might happen
But I felt more like a distraction
Or a book you'd save for a rainy afternoon (Rainy afternoon)
You know I thought that we'd maybe do this
But I can't pretend I wasn't clueless
After goodbye from Southfields on a rainy afternoon
[Outro]
(Just a book you'd save for a rainy afternoon)
(Goodbye from Southfields)
(On a rainy afternoon)
