One More Try (A King Is Born)

I've had enough of danger

And people on the streets

I'm lookin' out for angels

Just tryin' to find some peace

Now I think it's time

That you let me know

So if you love me, say you love me

But if you don't, just let me go

'Cause teacher, there are things

That I don't wanna learn

And the last one I had

Made me cry

So I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you

Think that you're mine

Because it ain't no joy for an uptown boy

Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

When you were just a stranger

And I was at your feet

I didn't feel the danger

Now I feel the heat

That look in your eyes

Tellin' me no!

So you think that you love me

And know that you need me

I wrote the song, I know it's wrong

Just let me go

And teacher, there are things

That I don't wanna learn

Oh, the last one I had

Made me cry

So I don't want to learn to hold you, touch you

Think that you're mine

Because it ain't no joy for an uptown boy

Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

So when you say that you need me

That you'll never leave me

I know you're wrong, you're not that strong

Let me go!

And teacher, there are things

That I still have to learn

But the one thing I have

Is my pride

Oh, so I don't wanna learn to hold you, touch you

Think that you're mine

Because there ain't no joy for an uptown boy

Who just is unwillin' to try

I'm so cold inside

Maybe just one more try
