Teach Me Tonight
Discover the Art of Love: Unveiling the Meaning in 'Teach Me Tonight'
Lyrics
Did you say that I've got a lot to learn
Recognition of having a lot to learn
Well don't think I'm trying not to learn
Not resistant to learning
Since this is the perfect spot to learn
Emphasizing the current opportunity to learn
Teach me tonight
Desire to be taught tonight
Starting with the ABC of it
Starting from the basics
Getting right down to the X-Y-Z of it
Delving deep into understanding
Help me solve the mystery of it
Seeking guidance to solve the mysteries
Teach me tonight
Reiteration of the request to be taught
The sky's a blackboard high above you
Using the sky as a metaphor for learning possibilities
And if a shooting star goes by
Utilizing opportunities as they arise
I'll use that star to write "I love you"
Expressing affection and devotion
A thousand times across the sky
Repetition of love declaration
One thing isn't very clear my love
Uncertainty in the relationship
Teachers shouldn't stand so near my love
Feeling uncomfortable with closeness
Graduation's almost here my love
Implying the imminent end of a phase
You'd better teach me tonight
Emphasizing the urgency to learn before it ends
I've played loves scenes in a flick or two
Having some experience in romance
And I've also met a chick or two
Interactions with multiple people
But I still can learn a trick or two
Admitting the capacity to learn more
Hey teach me tonight
Request to be taught
I who thought I knew the score of it
Realization of lacking comprehensive knowledge
Kind of think I should know much more of it
Feeling the need for deeper understanding
Off the wall, the bed, the floor of it
Emphasizing various locations of learning
Hey teach me tonight
Reiteration of the request for teaching
The midnight hours come slowly creeping
Highlighting the quiet moments for reflection and learning
When there's no one there but you
Emphasizing intimacy in learning
There must be more to life than sleeping
Seeking more than mere existence
Single in a bed for two
Feeling incomplete alone
What I need most is post graduate
Desiring advanced knowledge
What I feel is hard to articulate
Struggling to express feelings
If you want me to matriculate
Linking learning with commitment
You'd better teach me tonight
Emphasizing urgency to teach
What do you get for lessons
Questioning the gains from learning
Teach me, come on and teach me, teach me tonight
Repetition of the request to be taught
