Boyfriend Shirt

You walked into a thrift store some many moons ago

And something caught your eye

A corduroy shirt with pockets on the chest

It was tan and nice, but it didn't match your style

But you knew it would fit me right before you even knew me

So you kept it through the years

And some would call that destiny or fate, but love's a choice

And with you I have no fears

I wore it to your papa's baseball game and that same night

He questioned my career

I hope that you don't think of me the same, but even still

What we have is sincere

So I'll wear my boyfriend shirt

I got you on my mind

And I think about us all the time

Yeah, I'll wear my boyfriend shirt

It helps me to feel known and to feel seen

No, I don't think I've known a love like this

Since I've known anything

When we dance you stand on my feet

You like being human with me

Loving you feels safe and worth the risk

Linger 'cause we're bad at farewell

You kiss me when I am unwell and you say

I don't care if I get sick

I wore it when we painted in the park and that same day

Oh, something came undone

It rose from deep inside me and it told me to release

'Cause I know you're gonna run

So I'll wear my boyfriend shirt

I got you on my mind

And I think about us all the time

Yeah, I'll wear my boyfriend shirt

It helps me to feel known and to feel seen

No, I don't think I've known a love like this

No, I don't think I've known a love like this

Since I've known anything
