One More Try

I've had enough of danger
And people on the streets
I'm lookin' out for angels
Just tryin' 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

'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 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
Tellin' me no
So you think that you love me and 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 learn 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
