Teach Me Tonight Lyrics

[Chorus 1]
Did you say I've got a lot to learn?
Well, don't think I'm trying not to learn
Since this is the perfect spot to learn
Teach me tonight

[Chorus 2]
Starting with the A, B, C of it
Right down to the X, Y, Z of it
Help me solve the mystery of it
Teach me tonight

[Verse 1]
All the sky's a blackboard
High above you
And if a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write, "I love you"
A thousand times across the sky

[Chorus 3]
One thing isn't very clear, my love
Should the teacher stand so near my love
Graduation's almost here my love
Teach me tonight

[Verse 1]
All the sky's a blackboard
High above you
And if a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write, "I love you"
A thousand times across the sky
[Chorus 4]
Mmm, one thing isn't very clear, my love
Should the teacher stand so near my love
Graduation's almost here my love
Teach me tonight

[Outro]
Starting with the A, B, C of it

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
