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...

´Cos 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...
