Lyrics

[Intro - Spoken softly]
You know, darlin'...
I've seen you in a hundred different things...
But nothin' ever stopped my heart
Like seein' you... in my white dress shirt.

[Verse 1]
You came walkin' out that bedroom door
Sunlight spillin' on the hardwood floor
Hair fallin' wild, lips still red
That shirt hangin' loose, dancin' 'round your legs

[Spoken]
I couldn't move.
You looked like a dream... that had just woken up beside me.

[Chorus]
Girl, that shirt's seen boardrooms, backseats, long nights
But nothin' ever made it look quite this right
It ain't the silk or the lace that makes me hurt
It's you... in my white dress shirt

[Verse 2]
You turned and smiled, didn't say a word
Just sipped your coffee and let it burn
And I thought to myself, "Lord have mercy..."
There goes my reason for the rest of the day

[Spoken]
And maybe the rest of my life...
If you'll have me.

[Chorus]
Yeah, that shirt's been wrinkled, worn, and torn
But on you, it's brand new every single morn
Ain't no runway look, but it's still dessert--
You wear love so well... in my white dress shirt

[Bridge - Spoken softly]
They say clothes don't make the woman...
But baby, you sure make that shirt more than just cotton and buttons.
You make it mine.
You make it unforgettable.

[Final Chorus - Sung softly]
Girl, it ain't the way it fits or flirts
It's how you make my whole world turn
You steal my breath, and my heart, and my words
Every time you wear...
My white dress shirt
