Teach Me Tonight

The DeCastro Sisters/Frank Sinatra

Writer(s): Cahn/de Paul



Did you say (that) I've got a lot to learn

Well don't think I'm trying not to learn

Since this is the perfect spot to learn

Teach me tonight



Starting with the ABC of it

Getting 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

And if a shooting star goes by

I'll use that star to write "I love you"

A thousand times across the sky



One thing isn't very clear my love

Teachers shouldn't stand so near my love

Graduation's almost here my love

You'd better teach me tonight



I've played loves scenes in a flick or two

And I've also met a chick or two

But I still can learn a trick or two

Hey teach me tonight



I who thought I knew the score of it

Kind of think I should know much more of it

Off the wall, the bed, the floor of it

Hey teach me tonight



The midnight hours come slowly creeping

When there's no one there but you

There must be more to life than sleeping

Single in a bed for two



What I need most is post graduate

What I feel is hard to articulate

If you want me to matriculate

You'd better teach me tonight



What do you get for lessons

Teach me - come on and teach me - teach me tonight
