Same Clothes Lyrics - Singles - Chris Velan

On the day that I was born they say I came out wearing these same clothes 

and since then I've been trying to find out where I got these same clothes 

I went to every store asked every tailor there could be 

wondering if somebody had the same clothes as me 

and it took a while but I learned there's nobody with these same clothes 

And when I wake this morning I'll get up put on these same clothes 

And I'll step into the sunlight and start walking in these same clothes 

And when the air turns cold and the clouds bring the rain 

These clothes they will protect me 'till the skies clear up again 

And against the wind I'll button up the collar on these same clothes 

And when we first met I'm sure that I was showing off these same clothes 

And when I gave my heart to you I did so in these same clothes 

And before we first made love you pealed off each one from my skin 

'Till there was nothing left to keep you from coming in 

And you saw who I am in the absence of these same clothes 

When they get dirty I wash them with care oh these same clothes 

And when they lose a button oh they tear in these same clothes 

Now most days when I dwell on not what is but what is not 

I look at other people and all the clothes they've got 

Until I realize I could have nothing but these same clothes 

And our children will know what it means to have a loving home 

But there are things they will have to figure out on their own 

And I promise I won't ever try to make them wear these same clothes 

No No 

Ohh Ooo ooh 

Ohh Ooo ooh 

Oooh Ohh Do do do 

When I leave this world please separate me from these same clothes 

Just burn them into ash no one can ever wear these same clothes 

And if you knew me well you know how much I cherished you 

Remember that I wore these clothes the only way I knew 

And I was happy and I was blessed and how I loved to wear these same clothes 

Yes I was happy and I was blessed and how I loved to wear these same clothes 

Yeah I was happy and I was blessed and how I loved to wear these same clothes 

Alright Oooh ooh ooh 

Alright Oooh ooh ooh 

Oooh ooh do do do 

Oooh ooh ooh ooh do do do
