I've had enough of danger

People on the streets

I'm looking out for angels

Just tryin' 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

'Cuz teacher there are things that I don't want to learn

And the last one I had made me cry

So I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you

I think that you are mine

Because there 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 tellin' me no

So you think that you love me

Know that you need me

I wrote this song, I know it's wrong

Just let me go

Teacher there are things that I don't want to learn

And the last one I had made me cry

So I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you

I think that you are mine

'Cuz there ain't no joy for an uptown boy

Whose teacher has told him goodbye

So when you say that you need me

That you'll never leave me

I know you are wrong, you are not that strong

Let me go

Teacher, there are things that I still have to learn

But the one thing I have is my pride

Oh, so I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you

I think that you are 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
