Bookstore Girl

In the back of the room
It was there that I saw you
In a shirt that you wore
Knowing I'd be in the store
Then you left down the stairs
Follow you I wouldn't dare
I accepted my fate
That I'd never see your face again
Oh bookstore girl, I wonder what your name is
You know you're famous in my group of friends
Oh bookstore girl, I feel a sudden urge to
Purchase the book you shelved the other day
Bookstore girl
Going back just to see
If still in the store you'd be
Reading only the books that you'd recommend to me
Knowing more than just your name
It wouldn't be the same
Remaining fantasy
That's more romantic to me
Oh bookstore girl, I wonder what your name is
You see, the shame is
I might never know
I'll always have the Adler, Stein and Nelson
Authors I fell in love with when I met
Bookstore girl
I asked you foolishly
If you work 'til 3
On a Sunday afternoon
Bookstore girl I'll see you soon
Bookstore girl I'll see you soon
