Lyrics Fleet Foxes

Fleet Foxes

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 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
