About Sunday

"Sunday" is a song by Australian recording artist Jessica Mauboy. It was released digitally on 12 April 2019 as the lead single from Mauboy's forthcoming fourth studio album, Hilda. Upon release, Mauboy said: "My favourite part of the song is where the lyrics go 'I forgive you then you forget, you're sleeping even if you didn't make that bed', there is so much sass in that and I love this idea of creating emotionally how just by little things by not making a bed, folding the clothes, picking up your rubbish can be so irritating and annoying that those things if not said can filter through the day, or the next day or the week or the month and can turn into something really I guess tangy. But I loved how passionate those lyrics and how deep they are."Speaking on radio station Nova 96.9, Mauboy revealed the song was inspired after a heated argument with her boyfriend.

Oh
Ayy, mm

Woke up thinking 'bout last night (last night)
After all this time you're still my type (my type)
You're in all my deepest thoughts
And I say it like I mean it, oh
When we get emotional, ayy
You close me out and lock the door (lock the door)
I don't have the words to say (no)
I just wanna meet halfway

I just want your honesty
If I walk out and I leave

That ain't on me, it's on you
I don't wanna tell you what you should do
'Cause I just want me and you
Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon
But I got all these blessings to myself (ah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, I got all these blessings to myself (ah, yeah, yeah)
But I just want me and you
Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon

I forgive you then you forget
You're sleeping even if you didn't make the bed
I just wanna fix it
But you gon' have to do your part and lift it, oh

I just want your honesty
If I walk out and I leave

That ain't on me, it's on you
I don't wanna tell you what you should do
'Cause I just want me and you
Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon
But I got all these blessings to myself (ah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, I got all these blessings to myself (ah, yeah, yeah)
But I just want me and you
Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon

That ain't on me, it's on you
I don't wanna tell you what you should do
I just want me and you
Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon

I just want your honesty (your honesty)
If I walk out and I leave

That ain't on me, it's on you
I don't wanna tell you what you should do
'Cause I just want me and you
Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon
But I got all these blessings to myself (ah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, I got all these blessings to myself (ah, yeah, yeah)
But I just want me and you
Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon

Yeah, you and me
Just chillin' on a Sunday afternoon (sunday afternoon)
Chillin' on a Sunday, yeah (yeah, yeah)
Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon, yeah
