To sir with love

To sir with love

Those school girl days
of telling tales
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'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'd try to make a start
but I would rather you let me give my heart
To Sir, with love

Ao mestre, com carinho

Aqueles dias de estudante
De contar mentiras, e roer unhas se fora
Mas, em minha mente
Sei que sempre, sobreviverão
Mas como agradecer alguém
Que te fez "crescer como gente"
Não é fácil, mas vou tentar
Se você quisesse o céu
Eu escreveria nele com as estrelas
A mil pés de altura
Ao mestre, com carinho
Chegou a hora
De fechar os livros ... enquanto longos e últimos olhares
Permanecem
