Of telling tales, biting nails are gone, oh
If you wanted the moon
If you wanted the sky
I know that I am leaving my best friend
A friend who taught me right from wrong
Well, it's not easy, oh but I'll try
And as I leave, yeah
I would try to make a start
But I would rather you let me give my heart
I would try to make a start
And as I leave
Those schooldays are
But I would rather you let me give my heart
But in my mind
The time has come for closing books
To sir with love
And long last looks must end, oh, oh
If you wanted the moon
And weak from strong that's a lot to learn
What, what can I give you in return?
What, what can I give you in return?
I would write across the sky in letters
I know that I am leaving my best friend, oh, oh
That would soar a thousand feet high
To sir with love
Who had been so good to you?
I know that they live on and on, on and on and on
And weak from strong that's a lot to learn
But how do you thank someone
A friend who taught me right from wrong
