One More Try

I've had enough of danger

And people on the streets

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 wanna learn to hold you, touch you

And think that you're mine

Because there ain't no joy

For an uptown boy

Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye

When you were just a stranger

And I was at your feet

I didn't feel the danger

But 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 this song, I know it's wrong

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

And think that you're mine

Because there ain't no joy

For an uptown boy

Whose teacher has told him 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

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

And think that you're mine

Because there ain't no joy

For an uptown boy

Who just isn't willing to try

So cold inside

Maybe just one more try
