Back To School Lyrics by Sam Tsui

Yearbook

2020

[Verse 1]
Last year was tough again, she'd never been
Any good at blending in
By now she's used to the way they stare
The girl who don't belong anywhere
Hair falling to her knees
As she read 'bout wolves and wizardry
But she's been wondering since the sixth grade
What it'd be like if people could change

[Chorus]
And maybe this year
She'll walk through the doors and they'll all cheer
Eyes off the floor, she'll have no fear
When she goes back to school, she'll bе so much better
And maybe as soon as Sеptember
Nobody will even remember
How they could be so cruel
When she goes
Back, back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back, back
When she goes back
When she goes, when she goes back to school

[Verse 2]
I sleep through the summer nights
As she writes out stories in the kitchen light
The hero trapped in the tower
She counts the days and the hours
Used to dread walking down the hall
Every fall, just wishing she could be so small
Her dad say, "Honey, you're just shy"
And he thinks if she could just try

[Chorus]
And maybe this year
She'll walk through the doors and they'll all cheer
Eyes off the floor, she'll have no fear
When she goes back to school, she'll be so much better
And maybe as soon as September
Nobody will even remember
How they could be so cruel
When she goes
Back, back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back, back
When she goes back
When she goes, when she goes back to school
When she goes
Back, back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back, back
When she goes back
When she goes, when she goes back to school

[Middle 8/Bridge]
Head smiling in a yearbook
What do they see when they look
At her face
And she wakes every morning
Wondering if it's the one she finally
Finds a place

[Chorus]
And maybe this year
She'll walk through the doors and they'll all cheer
Eyes off the floor, she'll have no fear
When she goes back to school, she'll be so much better
And maybe as soon as September
Nobody will even remember
How they could be so cruel
When she goes
Back, back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back, back
When she goes back
When she goes, when she goes back to school
When she goes
Back, back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back, back
When she goes back
When she goes, when she goes back to school
