If You Were My Teacher

If you were my teacher
I would be the best student
Sit in the front of the class
Do my best to be attentive
Try and take good notes
And study hard
Hopefully see an A on my report card
But I’ll probably fail the test
Cause when I was suppose to be reading the text
I was drawing your picture
Dreaming of us together
Without desks in between
Without our love causing a campus scene
Just you and me

If you were my teacher
I would totally forget the subject matter
Cause you’re all that matters
I want to know more than your expertise
I’d like to see your house
And your room
A tour behind the scenes
I’d want to know what you’ve seen
And what you’ve felt
I’d hope I can say the right things to make your heart melt

If you were my teacher
I’d hope you would show me the finer things in this life
Make me believe love happens more than twice
Know we learn little when we study mice
Know a phone is just a device
Believe my heart can divide in thrice

If you were my teacher
Your blonde hair would not be my favorite feature
Nor would your brain
Or your degrees
My favorite part would be the part just for me
The way you look
When you see your picture in my notebook
Or that it was so easy my heart you took
My favorite part is the whole thing
Your Divine beautiful being
Your heart shine
And how your soul sings

I want you as my teacher
So when I see your name in the course catalogue
I won’t skip it to work on my blog
I’ll sign up
And sit up front
So you won’t miss me
Close enough so you can kiss me
But please first teach me
And show me all your wonder
I won’t be afraid of the thunder
Just want to see the lightening
Love is not frighting
Please teach me something enlightening
I know you will
And I will be patient
Listen
And sit still
