I Fell in Love

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
