Had enough danger with people on the streets
Looking out for angels
(Angels)
Just tryin' to find some peace, mmm

I think it's time
(Now I think it's time)
It's time that you let me know
(You let me know)
So if you love me, say you love me
And if u don't just let me go

Teacher there are things that I don't want to learn
(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
And think that you're mine
'Cuz it ain't no world for an uptown girl
Teacher has told her goodbye, goodbye, oh goodbye

When you were just a stranger I was at your feet
(Ooh)
I didn't feel danger, now I feel the heat
(Yeah)

The look in those eyes the look in those
Lovely eyes is tellin' me
(Is tellin' me)
No, so you think that you love me, no, that you need me
I wrote this song, I know it's wrong just let me go

Teacher there are things, there are things
That I don't want to learn
(Things that I don't want to learn, ooh yeah)
Ooh the last one I had made me cry
(Come on)

So I don't want to learn to hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
No world for an uptown girl
Teacher has told her goodbye, goodbye, oh goodbye

So I don't want to learn to hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
No world for an uptown girl
Who just isn't willin' to try so cold inside
(So cold inside)
Ooh baby just one more
(Gimme one more try)

Just one more try to ease my mind, I feel so cold inside
Just one more try to ease my mind, I feel so cold inside
Just one more try to ease my mind, I feel so cold inside
