The "Blue Man" Shirt
I put this shirt up on the shelf
After a long night and sweating
With a picture in the headlights
And 30 minutes till I'm asleep
Orange is your favorite color
Which is why I wore it that night
Hidden in the darkness
Just a glimpse from a streetlight
It layed there on my desk
As to remind me of you
The painting that you made for me
The love I shared with you
It was washed a few weeks later
Without permission or a question
I was a little bit upset
But I still thought about you
That's why I put it on the shelf again
To keep the memories away
I loved to think about them
But I have a new love today
Then today I took it off my desk
Put it on instead
A new scent of a new love looms
A new memory I might forget
So I'll wear it one more time tomorrow
Hopefully you will know
That the last time that I put it on
I was so deep in love
So this is a constant reminder
Of what I want from a girl
A suddle conversation
Before the passion of the world
Now with new meanings to think about
It'll have still one more use
Tuesday nights are constant reminders
I can't wait to make a reminder of you
I want you to know-I'll think of you now
Everytime I see and smell
This shirt is my constant reminder
Of this love I know so well
