The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Her voice is echoed in my mind
I count the days till she is mine
Can't tell my friends cause' they will laugh
I love a girl from senior class (whoa-oo)
I daydream through my freshmen math, while she fills out her collage aps
Show her a world where we belong
But she'll have to drive us to the prom
*Chorus*
That's what i go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
You can call me crazy, she is so amazing
That's what I go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
Girlfriends ive had plenty, but shes the one that i need
That's what i go to school for
That's what i go to school for
Her boyfriends just turning 19
But that doesnt bother me
He;s back at collage out of town
I found a reason to go 'round
I climb a tree outside her home
To make sure that she's alone
She looks up and sees me there, so I can't help but stop and stare
*Chorus*
That's what i go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
You can call me crazy, she is so amazing
That's what I go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
Girlfriends ive had plenty, but shes the one that i need
That's what i go to school for
That's what I, what I, what I go to school for
Bridge
Everyone that you see all day knows you're looking at me in a different way
I guess that's why my marks are getting so high
I can see those tell tale signs telling me that I was on your mind
I could see that you want it more when you told me that I'm what you go to school for
I'm what you go to school for
She's made her choice and I'm the one
At least 'til graduation comes
We drive past school to wave goodbye
My friends they can't believe their eyes
*Chorus*
That's what i go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
You can call me crazy, she is so amazing
That's what I go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
Girlfriends ive had plenty, but shes the one that i need
That's what i go to school for
That's what I, what I, what I go to school for
