Lyrics
Baby, baby I've had enough of danger And people on the streets I'm looking out for angels Just trying to find some peace Now I think it's time That you let me know So if you love me Say you love me But if you don't, just let me go 'Cause teacher (Teacher) There are things that I don't want to learn And the last one I had Made me cry (Made me cry) So I don't want to learn to Hold you, touch you (Touch you) Think that you're mine (Think that you're mine) Because it ain't no joy For an uptown boy Whose teacher has told him goodbye Goodbye, goodbye When you were just a stranger And I was at your feet I didn't feel the danger Now I feel the heat That look in your eyes Telling me no So you think that you love me Know that you need me I wrote the song, I know it's wrong Just let me go And teacher (And teacher) There are things That I don't want to learn Oh, the last one I had Made me cry (Made me cry) Oh so, I don't want to learn to Hold you, touch you (Touch you) Think that you're mine Because it ain't no joy For an uptown boy Whose teacher has told him goodbye Goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye Who is that teacher? (Who is that teacher?) I'm the student (I'm the student) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah Boy I'm just gonna say goodbye You are my teacher You are my leader So when you say that you need me That you'll never leave me I know you're wrong, you're not that strong Let me go And teacher There are things That I still have to learn But the one thing I have is my pride (Made me cry) Oh, so, I don't want to learn to Hold you, touch you (Touch you) Think that you're mine (Think that you're mine) 'Cause it ain't no joy Just an uptown boy Who just isn't willing to try I'm so cold Inside Maybe, just one more, try
