Hey
Tryna decide tryna decide
If I really wanna go out tonight
I never used to go out without ya
Not sure I remember how to

Gonna be late gonna be late
But, all my girls gon have to wait 'cause
I don't know if I like my outfit
I Tried everything in my closet

Nothin' feels right when I'm not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin' them off 'cause I feel a fool
Tryna dress up when I'm missin' you
Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with somethin' Hanes
In bed I lay
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on

(Hey)
Gotta be strong gotta be strong but I'm
Really hurtin' now that you're gone
I thought maybe I'd do some shoppin'
But I couldn't get past the door an

Now I just don't know, now I just don't know If I
Ever really gon' let cha go
And I couldn't even leave my apartment
I'm stripped down, torn up about it

Nothin' feels right when I'm not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin' them off 'cause I feel a fool
Tryna dress up when I'm missin' you
Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with somethin' Hanes
In bed I lay
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on

With nothin' but cha T-shirt on ('cause I missed you, 'cause I missed you)
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on (said I missed you baby)

Now I just don't know now
I don't just know if I ever really gon let you go
And I couldn't even leave my apartment
I'm stripped down torn up about it.
Nothin' feels right when I'm not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin' them off 'cause I feel a fool
Tryna dress up when I'm missin' you
Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with somethin' Hanes
In bed I lay

Nothin' feels right when I'm not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin' them off 'cause I feel a fool
Tryna dress up when I'm missin' you
Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with somethin' Hanes
In bed I lay

With nothin but cha T-shirt on
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on
(Nothin' but your t-shirt on )
(Nothin' but your t-shirt on)

    My Interpretation:I'm really surprised no one has thought of this, but personally, I thought this song could actually be about a girl who's boyfriend is in the military and is deployed and she's missing him. It makes sense, because if he was just an ex, then why would she have his t-shirt? I know firsthand, that it is very difficult to want to go out and be with friends (who all have their boyfriends nearby) when your boyfriend is deployed.

    General Comment:i love this song, she has such a pretty voice.

    but okay, have you felt like all you want to do is curl into a ball, eat ice cream, watch sappy love movies & cry, after a relationship? that's what she's describing. she just got out a relationship, and she's isolated herself from her friends. they're trying to get her to go out with them, but she feels stupid for getting all dressed up and looking pretty for anyone but him. she tries to go shopping, but she doesn't see the point. so she wears the only thing she has left of him, his t-shirt.

    i agree with paigeybaby, you could relate it to her boyfriend dying. but i think that it's just a breakup song.

    General Comment:Liking it a lot:)
    Just picked up that maybe she could miss this boy more than the others as she was really inlove wit him because he is different, maybe he leads a different lifestyle and not as wealthy because she says she is wearing his hanes shirt-not very expensive at all, she just slipped out of her dress and Jimmy Choos-she's rich? she's sick of dressing up, for him she could wear whatever it didn matter?

    'in that i lay, wit nothing but ur t-shirt on'♥

    General Comment:i can totally relate to this song. i think it's about when a girl is in a super intense relationship, and totally in love, and then her boyfriend moves away, or dies. and then she's remembering how much she loved him, and how she needs him back. this song helped me through a time when a guy that i liked a ton moved a way. and i was really sad, o i just kept playing this song over and over until i stopped crying.

    My Opinion:This ones a guilty pleasure for me too! It's so sad though.
    I don't know if anyone else thought this, but I got the impression it could have been about her boyfriend who died. She doesn't wanna dress up or go shopping because she feels guilty trying to act normal when he's died, and all she wants to do is stay in with his T-shirt on and feel close to him.
    That's probably too deep but that's what it reminds me of!
    It's sad either way though.

    General Comment:I'm not a bog fan of this music, but this is definitely a guilty pleasure for me.

    Obviously about a girl who misses a guy, and she really doesn't wanna do anything anymore because she misses him so much. So she wears his t-shirt, because it reminds her of him. Pretty cute. Sweet song.

    General Comment:My girlfriend called off our relationship in August. She asks me to download for her songs like this. The funny thing is that she doesn't have any of my clothes or never wore any of my clothes. She has a cap i gave her though. That was mines. We remain great and special friends though.
