The day you and I fell in love
The day my Levi's became my possession
That day we stumbled upon each other
That day my eyes laid upon my Levi's
That day you said "nice",
That day I bought my Levi's.
Never before a "hi" sent me to such heavenly bliss
Never before a gentleness touched me to the core
Your calm, quiet dignified air was assuring comfort
Your smile filled me with emotions run deep
That day we met,
That day we've fallen in love.
Never before an object got me so excited
Never before an object feel so soft yet so rugged
Its worn-out attitude spoke of a mysterious past
Its 70s cut and style suit the nostalgic me
That day we've fallen in love
That day I've fallen in love with my 2nd-hand Levi's too.
My Levi's became my prized possession
My Levi's followed me everywhere I go
You bought me many others
I never really bothered about them
You couldn't fathom my objection
I never really told you why.
That day my Levi's became "unwearable"
That day its tattered tears were a pitiful sight
That same day we quarrelled
That same day you were unbearable
I'd always knew you were the one for me
I never did asked you if I was the one for you.
That day you left, I was a pitiful sight.
I felt as abandoned and torn as my Levi's.
The day you left, you left me with this old adage,
"If you love something, let it go,
if it comes back to you, it's yours
if it doesn't, it never was."
That day you left, laid on my bed was my Levi's
Stitch by stitch, its tears and ravishes were delicately sewn
That day you left, a note laid on top of my Levi's
This Levi's symbolises our times together
Its smell I would never forget, it's your smell
With your smell, I leave my touch."
My Levi's no longer has a mysterious past
My Levi's has a new life now, a new beginning
My Levi's now holds OUR past
My Levi's is now OUR object of affection.
I know you are still the one for me
Am I still the one for you?
This was written long ago, for a friend. How have you been, my friend?
