"Monday Afternoons" Lyrics

I see you're beautiful, oh beautiful
On Monday afternoons.
You drown inside the pool,
Of abandoned sorrow,
On Monday afternoons.

You say breathe slowly, calm down.
This boat is coming to a halt now.
Lift your head up, leave me behind,
My pain is not your fault.

So let go of me,
And you'll be free.
I am only beautiful,
On Monday afternoons.

And I say you don't see,
This is vanity.
You are always beautiful,
A flower in bloom.

I will not leave you here, beautiful,
For you will surely die.
And if I leave you here, alone and cold,
I'll miss you, I will die.

You say breathe slowly, calm down,
This boat is coming to a halt now.
Lift your head up, leave me behind,
My pain is not your fault.

So let go of me,
And you'll be free.
I am only beautiful,
On Monday afternoons.

And I say you don't see,
This is vanity.
You are always beautiful,
A flower in bloom.

So let go of me,
And you'll be free.
I am only beautiful,
On Monday afternoons.

And I say you don't see,
This is vanity.
You are always beautiful,
A flower in bloom.

Now I am only beautiful,
On Monday afternoons.
