I've had enough of danger and people on the streets |
|
I'm looking out for angels, just trying to find some peace |
|
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, there are things that I don't want to learn |
|
And the last one I had made me cry |
|
So I don't want to learn to hold 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 |
|
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, there are things that I don't want to learn |
|
Oh the last one I had made me cry |
|
So I don't want to learn to hold 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 |
|
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 |
|
Oh so I don't want to hold you |
|
Touch you, think that you're mine |
|
Because there ain't no joy for an uptown boy |
|
Who just isn't willing to try |
|
I'm so cold |
|
Inside |
|
Maybe just one more try |
