Sunday Afternoon Lyrics

Cover art for Sunday Afternoon lyrics by Rachael Yamagata

In her KCRW session of 3/10/05 she introduces the song by saying "this is a new one, about a guy, singing about another guy."

I'm thinking that one is in the closet and one isn't and will not come out and the song is about that.

Oh!! That adds a whole different dimension to this song. But it totally makes sense. It's basically an ultimatum to the closeted boy. They already have a relationship but the closeted boy doesn't want to take it public. So the singer basically says "are you in or out?" and that they should just make up their mind and not treat the singer as a shameful addiction.
