Sorry Teacher

Sitting in the classroom Staring through half-closed eyes Your voice is surrounding me A lover in disguise Your fingers lace through mine Forbidden, what a rush And to think that just two years ago You were nothing but a crush Your lips on mine taste so sweet I can never get enough Hidden in your classroom We speak the words of love The school year passes by No one suspects a thing A crazy whirlwind romance Too long to be a fling You can't forget the consequence If we were soon discovered I can't seem to let you go The deepest love I have uncovered I'm content as I lie in your arms But teacher you're so distant "We can't do this anymore" you whisper My life is over in an instant Called into the headmaster I'm sorry that I told Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned Our story now unfolds Two long years of desire Attraction, love and heat Are now slowly disappearing As I watch you from my seat Please understand I had to tell Because you broke my heart Nothing else made sense you see Love never made me smart I watch you as you're led away And everything goes grey Understand I loved you And think of you every day

Wow Beth this is awesome. I work in a school - never known it to happen since I've worked there but I know from the press that it does. Reminds me of the Police Song 'Don't stand so close to me' Jan x
