Corduroy Jacket
I wore a corduroy jacket to our first date
Buttoned up, my arm held out straight
Oh I would give you all my health, I wonder if you could tell
And I'm drowning in these paper notes I wrote
I kept 'em all cause I thought you were so perfect that you'd never write back
A mad, fearsome pleasure
Sawdust splinters in my mouth
That trash of treasure has had its way with me
When the days get empty, I'll fill them up with words you swore
And if you send a letter, would it get to me
Red ribbon tied back your hair, you've never seen such a long stare
I couldn't hold it back if I tried
I never tried
Your advice always seems to be on time, you quote to me every bible line
Soon I'll quote them back
A mad, fearsome pleasure
Sawdust splinters in my mouth
That trash of treasure has had its way with me
When the days get empty, I'll fill them up with words you swore
And if you send a letter, would it get to me
Just like that, we close our eyes and we're right back
Holding hands wearing your Georgia cap
Nothing shall come of nothing
Buttoned up, my arm held out straight
Oh I would give you all my health, I wonder if you could tell
And I'm drowning in these paper notes I wrote
I kept 'em all cause I thought you were so perfect that you'd never write back
A mad, fearsome pleasure
Sawdust splinters in my mouth
That trash of treasure has had its way with me
When the days get empty, I'll fill them up with words you swore
And if you send a letter, would it get to me
Red ribbon tied back your hair, you've never seen such a long stare
I couldn't hold it back if I tried
I never tried
Your advice always seems to be on time, you quote to me every bible line
Soon I'll quote them back
A mad, fearsome pleasure
Sawdust splinters in my mouth
That trash of treasure has had its way with me
When the days get empty, I'll fill them up with words you swore
And if you send a letter, would it get to me
Just like that, we close our eyes and we're right back
Holding hands wearing your Georgia cap
Nothing shall come of nothing
