Michał Bajor - Popołudnie

Good evening - my love, you must be surprised finding me alone in such a state
What does the liquor mean
and the ash on the carpet?
I am trying some self-examination
and it is the cheapest way
After all, we are not who we see in the mirror
I left the office early today
abandoning my daily routine
And, something happened to me
(I know, I am mumbling and slurring)
And something happened to me
something quite unpleasant and
it was a terrible day
I don't want any more days like this.

So, I left the office early - as I said
I was not busy, first time in so many years.
I barely know the neighborhood where I work - I got lost
Usually I get nervous
but this time it was even nice
I chose a random street for this walk
Lack of free time is so annoying
At least once I wanted to try something different
But I didn’t know
(no, dear, I don’t want any coffee)
I didn’t know that
I was taking a risk and
It was a terrible day
I don't want any more days like this.

The street brought me to a bar
It was empty except for one nice couple.
He was saying something silly
Invisible, I sat next to them
She was lost in him and ceased to be herself
And I bitterly resented my fate
that there is love, the true kind
foolishly regretting that
you never looked at me that way
So, not wanting to disturb them
I closed the bar door quietly
It was a terrible day
I don't want any more days like this
It was a terrible day
The woman, was you.
