You would fall asleep With your head in the books Pages stuck to your cheek Words are all in your head You went down, down, down In the history book my dear I would pull up and say Girl it's been a long, long time Since I was led away Guess I'm better off this way You went down, down, down In the history book my dear You went down, down, down In the history book my dear I watched you walk away Your bag in your hands Thought you were ready to stay Guess we're better off this way
