Now the year has come to a close

And I've had my last dance with you

Unto the empty streets we go

And this might be my last chance with you



So I might as well get it over

'Cause the things I've got 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 all magic

Unlock my chain

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

So I say with no restrain

Be mine, oh be mine



Hard to answer, yes, 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 all magic

Unlock my chain

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

So I say with no restrain

Be mine, oh be mine
