[Verse 1]
Be my teacher, be my saviour
I'm running faster, I'm losing pavement
So hold me closer when the time comes
I'll be patient, just know your name comes first
I've been working on myself while I've been away
Hope you will notice, hope you will love me more this way
So be my teacher, be my saviour
I'm running faster, I'm losing pavement
[Chorus]
You don't call and we know why
At the time when I need you
Be my teacher, be my saviour
Should've saw it on my actions when I told you I'm leaving
Be my teacher, be my saviour
[Verse 2]
A little different, a little view change

Just know your name comes first
Just know your name comes first
[Chorus]
You don't call and we know why
At the time when I need you
Be my teacher, be my saviour
Should've saw it on my actions when I told you I'm leaving
Be my teacher, be my saviour
[Chorus]
You don't call and we know why
At the time when I need you
Be my teacher, be my saviour
Should've saw it on my actions when I told you I'm leaving
Be my teacher, be my saviour
