Curacao Blue

I know what shirt you were wearing when I first bared your bones
 and in the light of the television, you were my own
 did you think I would stay?
 did you think I would go?
 I was the one to make you aware of the things you ought to know
 I was still waiting for the daylight when you appeared
 and when I'd wrap my arms around you
 I wasn't scared
 I know just what I was drinking when I first was untrue
 sea air, cheap beer, and some loneliness all mixed with curacao blue
 did I think it would stay?
 what happens there doesn't go
 she was the one to make me aware of the things I ought to know
 it was a mistake that caused your heartache
 I was just a kid, you should have seen yourself
 we were so young, but oh so serious
 and I understand exactly why I fell: I didn't really want you or myself
