Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
be the one I want
And I was sure'
I'll be the one you want
But I can't get holding on
From the words that I can keep
what's wrong with me I want
to know
Tell me why...
I don't know
Can you see The world is
smiling and fall in love with
me
Can you see now???
Raul Vaigla's song "Sunday Afternoon" seems to be a reflection on the uncertainty and confusion that can arise when trying to figure out one's place in the world and in a relationship. The lyrics suggest that the singer was once confident in their own identity and their potential with their partner, but something has happened to shake that belief. They lament that they can't seem to hold onto the words that would bring clarity and understanding.
The chorus serves as a plea for answers: the singer wonders what is wrong with them, why they can't figure things out, and why their partner seems distant. At the same time, they acknowledge that the world itself is beautiful and full of possibilities - perhaps indicating that the potential for happiness is always there, even if it may be difficult to access.
