Big Blue Note

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, and I have to reread it
Besides, you can show it to the boys down town 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 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, uh, reds, yellows and greens?"
You know, I looked at 'em all, but they all looked to me like
Big blue notes

[Solo]
Chorus
Is stand high on this cliff, overlooking the sea
With my big blue notepaper airplane, that I just set free
Now I'm gonna wait here a few more minutes, and if it don't come back to me, you guessed it
She's gone
