Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby, baby
[Verse 2]
I've had enough of danger and people on the streets
I'm lookin' out for angels, just tryin' to find some peace
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
'Cause teacher (Teacher), there are things that I don't want to learn
And the last one I had made me cry
[Verse 5]
So I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you (Touch you)
Think that you're mine (Think that you're mine)
'Cause there ain't no joy for an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
[Verse 6]
When you were just a stranger, mm, and I was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger, now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes (That tell tale song), telling me, "No", oh
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
[Verse 7]
And teacher (Teacher), there are things that I don't want to learn
Oh, the last one I had made me cry (Made me cry), oh
[Verse 8]
So I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you (Touch you)
Think that you're mine (Think that you're mine)
'Cause there ain't no joy (No joy) for an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
[Verse 9]
(Goodbye, goodbye) Yeah, whose the teacher?
I'm the student, I'm the student, boy
(Goodbye, goodbye) Yeah-yeah-yeah yeah
Boy, I just gotta say
(Goodbye, goodbye) Ooh, you were my stranger
Might need to learn a few things, I said, might as well
[Verse 10]
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
[Verse 11]
And teacher (Teacher), there are things that I still can't learn
But the one thing I have is my pride (Make me proud), oh
[Verse 12]
So I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you (Touch you)
That you're mine, oh (Think that you're mine )
'Cause there ain't no joy, oh
Just an uptown boy who just isn't willing to try
[Verse 13]
I'm so cold inside
Maybe just one more try
