Big Blue Note -- Toby Keith

See that big blue note, Over there on the counter?
You don't wanna read that thing, man It's a real get-you-downer.
But don't you dare say nothin' else Bad about her: she's gone.
No, no, no, no, don't, don't throw it away 'Cause tonight, I might need it. It gets real lonely around here at night some times,
An' I have to read read it Besides, you can show it to the boys down town, They won't believe that she's gone.

There used to be a time I was all she ever wanted.
All the man that she'll ever need.I come home to find, just like that, she's up an' vanished. An' the only thing she left behind for me  Is this big blue note Folded up in my pocket.
Yeah, don't laugh: it's been two months I still got it.
Sometimes I have to 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 inkspots "Of, er, reds, yellows an' greens
You know, I looked at 'em all But they all looked to me like big blue notes. There used to be a time I was all she ever wanted.
All the man that she'll ever need I come home to find, just like that, she's up an' vanished An' the only thing that's left to do
for me:

Is stand high on this cliff Overlooking the sea.
With my big blue notepaper aeroplane That I just set free.
An' I'm gonna wait here a few more minutes,
An' if it don't come back to me You guessed it: she's gone.
Crash landing. Bye bye, baby.

This song is about a girl who breaks up with her boyfriend and all she leaves him is a big blue note.        (songfacts)
