Did you say I've got a lot to learn?

Well, don't think I'm trying not to learn.

Since this is a perfect spot to learn,

Teach me tonight.

Starting with the A-B-C of it,

Right down to the X-Y-Z of it,

Help me solve the mystery of it -

Teach me tonight.


The sky's a blackboard     high above you,

And if a shooting star goes by,

I'll use that star to write "I Love You"

A thousand times across the sky.

One thing isn't very clear, my love;

Should the teacher stand so near, my love?

Graduation's almost here, my love -

Teach me tonight,         come on and teach me tonight.
