textbook love

Lyrics

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 be home soon anyway, anyway.", textbook love, textbook love, hold my little hand, baby, i started to wear my dad's cologne, started combing my hair to the side, anything that i could do, just to keep your attention on me, but i was just a phantom passing by, when you where on the track home with your 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 girl i was dreaming of, hold my little hand, baby, never will i know what you saw in me, but surely you knew exactly what i saw in you, thinking back now, i'm sure that was the only attraction, baby, textbook love in the textbook style, textbook girl with the textbook smile, textbook love, when i was on my way to redemption, baby, textbook love, textbook love, hold my little hand, baby, text book love, you were the girl i was dreaming of, hold my little hand, baby, lord, it's a shame, i know, thinking of how it could go, hold my little hand, baby, lord, it's a shame, i know, thinking of how it could go, hold my little hand, baby
