Amy Rigby - Knapsack lyrics

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