Favorite Shade of Blue Lyrics

i have a yellow and navy sundress
maybe i'll wear it today
it reminds me of you, your favorite shade of blue
now the hem is coming out

i think i'll walk to town today
i'll go the long way
the pavement meets my shoes
i'll go anywhere i choose
i imagine you are right behind

summertime falls from the trees
autumn is here and you're not
i've made you a ghost
i miss you the most
of anyone that's gone

life without you is second best
i guess i'll get by
i'm lonelier today
than i dare to say
to anyone who asks

i have a yellow and navy sundress
it reminds me of you.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
