Album: Every Breath You Take: The Classics
Young teacher the subject of schoolgirl fantasy
She wants him so badly knows what she wants to be
Inside her there's longing
This girl's an open page
Book marking she's so close now
This girl is half his age
Don't stand so...close to me
Don't stand so...close to me
Her friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes it not so easy
To be the teacher's pet
Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
Wet bus stop she's waiting
His car is warm and dry
Don't stand so...close to me
Don't stand so...close to me
{electric guitar solo}
Don't stand so...close to me
Don't stand so...close to me
Loose talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try
Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly
It's no use he sees her
He starts to shake, he starts to cough
Just like the old man in that famous book by Nabakov
Don't stand so...close to me
Don't stand so...close to me
Don't stand so...close to me
Don't stand so...close to me
Don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand so
{fades}
Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
