Lyric discussion by Jeanne1110 

Tuesday Afternoon he lay there dying. He is just beginning to understand that the death is coming. He lies there in her arms and thinks about the smoking and the cancer that got him here to this point and then realizes its a good day to leave his body and move on. The leaves of the trees are blowing outside his window and he sighs that the clouds are calling him. He knows it is Ok to go as she told him so in a sigh to. The voices that are whispering to him are setting him free from his body and he is on his way to no more physical issues. He signs as he decides to go...... Sweetdreams, my love.....8/21/12 Tuesday Afternoon Gary left it all behind..

@Jeanne1110 I agree with you. This is a song about taking one's leave from this world. Sure, one can make a case for it being merely a drug song, but the tone, sadness, the longing and regret mean there is more than that going on.

@Jeanne1110 Bless you. Tuesday afternoon a sad day for you
