Textbook Love |
I was in the classroom after school, |
Working on the chalkboard once again. |
You were in your uniform, |
Standing by the door, |
When I saw you, |
Saw you there. |
You were wondering if I’d walk you home |
Even though I lived on the opposite side, |
I said sure I don’t need to home soon anyway, |
Anyway. |
Oh textbook love, |
Textbook love, |
Hold my little hand baby. |
I started to wear my dad’s cologne, |
Started combin my hair to the side, |
Anything I could do, |
Just to keep your attention on me. |
But I was just a phantom passin by, |
When you were on the track home with you friends. |
I was nobody at all, |
I just needed an answer baby. |
Textbook love, |
Textbook love, |
Hold my little hand baby. |
Textbook Love. |
You were the little girl, |
I was dreamin' of. |
Hold my little hand baby. |
Never will I know what you saw in me, |
Surely knew exactly what I saw in you. |
Thinking back now, |
I’m sure that was the only attraction. |
Textbook love, |
With a textbook style. |
Textbook girl, |
With a textbook smile. |
Textbook love, |
When I was on my way to redemption. |
Textbook love, |
Textbook love, |
Hold my little hand baby. |
Textbook Love. |
You were the little girl, |
I was dreamin' of. |
Hold my little hand baby. |
Lord it’s a shame I know, |
Thinking of how it could go. |
Hold my little hand baby. |
