The Spanish Teacher and The English Student
There was a young girl
Who couldn't fall in love
She was hurt so much
To where she had given up
Then she met this man
Who was Puerto Rican and Hispanic
Every time she saw him in school
Her heart went into a panic
But he was a teacher
And she knew she didn't have a chance
But as he was standing in the hallway
She couldn't help but take a glance
He was so kind to her
She would stay after school just for them to talk
She would miss her bus on purpose
She didn't mind taking a walk
She doesn't know why he's in her head
Love is not in her book
And even though she knows a little Spanish
This is a language she never took
Twisting and turning in her bed
Wishing her feelings weren't so strong
In her head screaming asking why for him
She knew these emotions were wrong
She knew that the kind teacher
Could never feel the same
And after she graduates and leaves
He'll probably only remember her name
Not the talks they have had
And what she said under her breath that she shouldn't
He could only look back and say
He was a Spanish teacher with an English student
Who couldn't fall in love
She was hurt so much
To where she had given up
Then she met this man
Who was Puerto Rican and Hispanic
Every time she saw him in school
Her heart went into a panic
But he was a teacher
And she knew she didn't have a chance
But as he was standing in the hallway
She couldn't help but take a glance
He was so kind to her
She would stay after school just for them to talk
She would miss her bus on purpose
She didn't mind taking a walk
She doesn't know why he's in her head
Love is not in her book
And even though she knows a little Spanish
This is a language she never took
Twisting and turning in her bed
Wishing her feelings weren't so strong
In her head screaming asking why for him
She knew these emotions were wrong
She knew that the kind teacher
Could never feel the same
And after she graduates and leaves
He'll probably only remember her name
Not the talks they have had
And what she said under her breath that she shouldn't
He could only look back and say
He was a Spanish teacher with an English student
