|
Those schoolgirl days |
|
Of telling tales and biting nails are gone |
|
But in my mind |
|
I know that they will still live on and on |
|
But how do you thank someone |
|
Who has taken you from crayons to perfume |
|
It isn't easy, but |
|
I'll tryIf you wanted the sky, |
|
I would write across the sky in letters |
|
That would soar a thousand feet high |
|
To Sir, with love |
|
The time has come |
|
For closing books and long last looks must end |
|
And as I leave |
|
I know that |
|
I am leaving my best friend |
|
A friend who taught me right from wrong |
|
And weak from strong, that's a lot to learn |
|
What, what can |
|
I give you in return |
|
If you wanted the moon |
|
I would try to make a start |
|
But I would rather you let me give my heart |
|
To Sir, with love |
|
If you wanted the world, |
|
I'd surround it with a wall, |
|
I'd scrawl |
|
These words with letters ten feet tall |
|
To Sir, with love |
