Field-Trip Buddy lyrics

Fingers clenching the plastic handle

Of the lunchbox on the seat I saved for you

And kicking off the clumps of snow still

Clinging to my velcros

I wonder if You remember you said

You'd be my field trip buddy

Oh the places we'll find all by ourselves

If you would be my field trip buddy

I promise I won't tell anybody else

Please stay together and hold hands

Our instructions before entering the symphony hall

It's not the chandelier circus that's making me nervous

Your hand playing orchestras against mine

Oh the places we'll find all by ourselves

If you would be my field trip buddy

I promise I won't tell anybody else

Oh the places we'll find all by ourselves

If you would be my field trip buddy

I promise I won't tell anybody else

Lights going down now

Everyone secretly hoping they never come back on

Balancing elbows you keep pressing so slowly

I can't be making this up

And the sugar plums turn to cotton candy in my periphery

Our foreheads so close

And right there in the back row

Foreseeing a standing ovation

We promised to be each other's field trip buddy

Oh the places we'll find all by ourselves

If you would be my field trip buddy

I promise I won't tell anybody else

Oh the places we'll find all by ourselves

If you would be my field trip buddy

I promise I won't tell anybody else

Won't tell anybody else
