Compositor: Gene DePaul / Sammy Cahn
Did you say, I've got a lot to learn,
Well don't think, I'm not trying not to learn
Since this has been the perfect start to learn,
Teach me tonight
Starting with the ABC of it
Right down to the XYZ of it
Help me solve the mystery of it,
Teach me tonight
The sky's a blackboard high above you
If a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write I love you
You a thousand times across the sky
One thing isn't very clear my love,
Should the teacher stand so near my love
Graduations almost here my love,
Teach me tonight
One thing isn't very clear my love,
Should the teacher
Stand so near my love
Graduations almost here my love,
Teach me tonight
(Teach me, teach me tonight)
