To Sir with Love

Those schoolgirl days of telling
Tale and biting nails are gone
But in my mind I know
They will still live on and on

But how do you thank someone
Who has taken you
From crayons to perfume?
It isn't easy but I'll try

If you wanted the sky
I would write across the sky in letters
That would soar a thousand feet high

The time has come for closing books
And long last looks must end
And as I leave I know that
I am leaving my best friend

A friend who taught me right
From wrong and weak from strong
That's a lot to learn but
What can I give you in return?

If you wanted the moon
I would try to make a start
But I would rather you let me
Give my heart to sir with love
