Threadbare Favorite Shirt
Threadbare Favorite Shirt is a song about a worn old shirt that slowly becomes a symbol of a lifetime shared with someone you love. As the fabric fades, the seams loosen and the years leave their marks, the shirt becomes more valuable—not because it's perfect, but because it carries memories.
It's a quiet reflection on lasting love, growing older together, and how the things that survive time often become part of who we are. Sometimes the most ordinary objects tell the deepest stories.
A warm, intimate song about love that doesn't fade—it simply wears in.

Lyrics
You came in crisp and new
Fresh seams, clean shine
I wore you once, then twice
And you fit like mine
At first, it felt so sharp
Like every edge was true
Now the sleeves know my shape
And I know yours too
The hem gets soft with time
The color starts to fade
But I still reach for you
On every colder day
Love is like a shirt
(like a shirt)
Love is like a shirt
(like a shirt)
You wear it to the bone
Still call it your own
When the holes start showing through
I keep wearing you
A tear near the collar
A stain by the cuff
Nothing here is perfect
That’s the part I love
It holds every mile
Every laugh, every bruise
The more it lives with me
The more it feels like you
The hem gets soft with time
The color starts to fade
But I still reach for you
On every colder day
Love is like a shirt
(like a shirt)
Love is like a shirt
(like a shirt)
You wear it to the bone
Still call it your own
When the holes start showing through
I keep wearing you
Don’t need brand new seams
Don’t need flawless threads
I want the patched-up parts
The love that’s been well-read
What stays with the years
What bends but doesn’t break
What I keep on my skin
Even when it frays
Love is like a shirt
(like a shirt)
Love is like a shirt
(like a shirt)
You wear it to the bone
Still call it your own
When the holes start showing through
I keep wearing you
Crisp and new
Soft and true
All the holes
Still you
