Those school girl days
of telling tales and biting nails are gone
But in my mind
I know they will, 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'd write across the sky in letters
that would soar a thousand feet high
To Sir, With Love
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
What! 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
Those awkward years
have hurried by why did they fly away
Why is it Sir
children grow up to be people some day
What takes the place of climbing trees
and dirty knees in the world outside
What is there for you I can buy
If you wanted the world
I'd surround it with a wall I'd scrawl
These words with letters ten feet tall
To Sir, With Love
