Going Away to College Lyrics

Please take me by the hand
It′s so cold out tonight
I'll put blankets on the bed
I won′t turn out the light, just
Don't forget to think about me
And I won't forget you
"I′ll write you once a week", she said

Why does it feel the same to fall in love or break it off?
And if young love is just a game, then I must have missed the kick-off
Don′t depend on me to ever follow through on
Anything, but I'd go through hell for you, and

I haven′t been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared, so here′s your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's an ugly place, but you′re so beautiful to me

I'll think about the times
She kissed me after class, and
She put up with my friends
I acted like an ass, I'd
Ditch my lecture to watch the girls play soccer
Is my picture still hanging in her locker?

I haven′t been this scared in a long time
And I′m so unprepared, so here's your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world′s an ugly place, but you're so beautiful

I haven′t been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared, so here′s your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful
