I fell in love in the bookstore I did not know that it wasn't with him He seemed oh so generous That I forgot that he got it all for free Didn't mind that the covers were missing Didn't mind that he came home so late I fell in love with the books that he brought me He fell in love with someone else I'm turning the pages tonight I am turning the pages tonight I fell in love in the bookstore I did not know that it wasn't with him But after hours of television I see he does not like to read But he had nodded in all the right places He pulled my favorite authors off the shelf I know it was love in the bookstore that day For the rest I was kidding myself I'm turning the pages tonight I am turning the pages tonight I'll be turning the pages tonight
