Better On Me

(album: 40 East - 2022)

I left the box on my front porch
Two years of stuff and your favorite t-shirt
Can't say that I wasn't surprised
When I saw you out tonight
Downtown Broadway lights
Oh boy I thought you'd burn it
Or maybe give it away
Never thought you'd wear it when you used to say

It looked better on me
You said that that faded green
Sure did bring out my eyes
And boy I hate to agree
But it looked better on me
And if it helps you sleep
Then I'm glad you got it back
Even though we both know that
It looked better on me

You don't know how to keep a promise
Least you could do, boy, is be honest
'Cause it might've been two sizes too big
But you loved the way that it fit
At least you used to admit

That it looked better on me
You said that that faded green
Sure did bring out my eyes
And boy I hate to agree
But it looked better on me
And if it helps you sleep
Then I'm glad you got it back
Even though we both know that
It looked better on me

It looked better on me
You said that that faded green
Sure did bring out my eyes
And boy I hate to agree
But it looked better on me
Might've been two sizes too big
But you loved the way that it fit
At least you used to admit

That it looked better on me
You said that that faded green
Sure did bring out my eyes
And boy I hate to agree
But it looked better on me
And if it helps you sleep
Then I'm glad you got it back
Even though we both know that
It looked better on me

Boy I know you know I know you know
That it looked better on
Better on me
Boy I know you know I know you know
That it looked better on
Better on me
