[Verse]
E D
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
E D
It was a bookstore where I'd never been before
E D
I wasn't looking for anything more than a book
E D
But I looked, isn't that what eyes are for
E D
Studied biographies, I checked out the magazines
E D
My mind kept leading me back to his face
E D
I'd seen something about him that made me feel 17
E D
Stop, so I'm not, isn't that what minds are for
[Chorus]
E D
Now every day I can't wait to see him
E D
Don't ask me his name
E D
But every day I hand him my bag and
E D
Everything remains the same
[Verse]
E D
He took my knapsack and his fingers brushed my wrist
E D
Gave me a number but it wasn't even his
E D
I crossed another novel off of my reading list
E D
Wished to be kissed isn't that what lips are for
E D
Thinking about him when I'm on my way to work
E D
All these men in suits they look too perfect
E D
And I want to tell him I'm not just some soulless jerk
E D
Hey, I got a band I understand what life is for
[Chorus]
E D
Now every day I can't wait to see him
E D
Don't ask me his name
E D
But every day I hand him my bag and
E D
Everything remains the same
[Verse]
E D
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
E D
Wanted to tell him that I can't see him anymore
E D
Got a new job in a different part of town
E D
Fired and rehired isn't that what work is for
E D
He smiled right at me but I couldn't meet his eye
E D
All I could look at was the palm tree on his tie
E D
I'll think about him when I go to bed at night
E D
Deep in my sleep isn't that what dreams are for
[Outro]
E D
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
E D
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
E D
He took my knapsack
