Big Blue Note lyrics
by Toby Keith
See that big blue note?
It's over there on the counter.
You don't want to read that thing man,
It's a real getcha-downer.
Don't you dare say nothing else
Bad about her.
She's gone.
No, no, no, no,
Don't throw it away.
'Cause tonight I might need it.
It gets real lonely around here at night sometimes
And I have to reread it.
Besides, you show it to the boys downtown,
They won't believe that
She's gone.
There used to be a time
Where I was all she ever wanted.
All the man that she'll ever need.
I come home to find that
Just like that, she's up and vanished.
And the only thing she left behind for me....
Is this big blue note,
Folded up in my pocket.
Yeah, go ahead, laugh,
It's been two months;
I still got it.
Sometimes I gotta read the sucker twice just to make sure I ain't forgot that
She's gone.
You know my psychiatrist said,
"Tell me what do you see,
When you look at these ink spots of
Reds and yellows and greens?"
You know, I looked at them all,
But they all looked to me like
Big... blue... notes.
(Chorus)
I stand high on this cliff,
Overlooking the sea,
With my big blue note paper airplane that I just set free.
And I'm gonna wait here a few more minutes and
If it don't come back to me...
You guessed it...
She's gone.
(Crash landing.
Bye-bye, baby.)
