See that big blue note over there on the counter You Don't want to read that thing man, it's a real getcha downer But don't you dare say nothin else bad about her She's gone No,no,no,no don-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 can show it to the boys downtown, and they won't believe that, She's gone [CHORUS] 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 and vanished And 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 s**er 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 reds and yellows and green?" You know, I looked at them all, but all they looked to me like Big blue notes [CHORUS] 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 and vanished And the only thing thats left to do for me Is 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 landin Bye, bye, baby
