In this poignant reflection on love and missed opportunities, Kesha delves into the lingering doubts and what-ifs that accompany a fleeting romantic encounter. The lyrics explore the protagonist's obsessive ruminations over a brief connection with a man she met years ago, symbolized by his "cowboy blue suit." Despite societal assurances that love will find its way if it is meant to be, the protagonist grapples with uncertainty and regret, questioning whether she let her one true love slip away. This introspective narrative is further complicated by the protagonist's struggle with emotional baggage and unresolved feelings. Through vivid imagery and candid self-questioning, Kesha captures the universal human experience of wondering about paths not taken and loves lost. #MissedOpportunities #LoveAndRegret
Cowboy Blues
Lyrics
"Sing it with me"
They say you know when you know (ooh)
What do you do when you don't
They're saying love, it'll happen if it's meant to happen
But what do you do if it don't
Do you ever lie in bed with your three cats
And get obsessed with some boy you met
One time three years ago in Nashville
And you can't remember his last name?
And think
Did I fuck my whole life up?
Did I miss my one true love?
Was he right in front of me at the dive bar?
Was that you with the cowboy blues?
You asked me, "Babe, take a chance
Come on, just stay"
Why'd I leave you standing there at the dive bar?
I miss you with the cowboy blue suit
(Sha la la la la la la la la ooh)
My therapist said
"Listen, girl, it's a love addiction"
She gave me a book on that
(Did you read it?) No
My tarot cards read
There's a dead man clinging to my aura
And to let go of the past
I can't help that I'm in bed with my three cats
I'm still obsessed with some boy I shot whiskey with
For one night, and I don't remember if he remembers me
I sit here thinking about him
Did I fuck my whole life up?
Did I miss my one true love?
Was he right in front of me at the dive bar?
Was that you with the cowboy blues?
You asked me, "Babe, take a chance
Come on, just stay"
Why'd I leave you standing there at the dive bar?
I miss you with the cowboy blue suit
(Sha la la la la la la la la ooh)
I miss you with the cowboy blue suit
(Sha la la la la la la la la ooh)
I miss you with the cowboy blue
Some days it's easy, some days it's hard
Sunday's the night that we met at the bar
Laughin' and dancin' and shootin' the shit
What would have happened if I'd had your kids?
Did I fuck my whole life up?
Did I miss my one true love?
Was he right in front of me at the dive bar?
Was that you with the cowboy blues?
You asked me, "Babe, take a chance
Come on, just stay"
Why'd I leave you standing there at the dive bar?
I miss you in the cowboy blue Nudie suit
