now the evening has come to a close
and i’ve had my last dance with you
on to the empty streets we go
and it might be my last chance with you
so i might as well get it over
the things i have to say won’t wait until another day
you’re a lady i’m a man you’re supposed to understand
how these things are often planned to be
you’re romantic i’m a fool
you’re the teacher i’ve come to school
here i sit and hope that you’ll love me
you’re pure magic unlock my chain
nothing ventured nothing gained
and so i say with no restraint be mine be mine
hard to answer i agree
but then i’ve got to know
i’m not asking you to marry me
just a little love to show
oh i know i could make you happy
so the things i have to say
won’t wait until another day
you’re a lady i’m a man you’re supposed to understand
how these things are often planned to be
you’re romantic i’m a fool
you’re the teacher i’ve come to school
here i sit and hope that you’ll love me
you’re pure magic unlock my chain
nothing ventured nothing gained
and so i say with no restraint be mine be mine
