Lyrics

oh since my teacher died
i am a student now
of whom i cannot tell
of what i cannot tell...

i read his books for years
i've gone all through them
how i wanted one last fix
but he's not writing now
oh, my teacher died
i felt sorry
but i wasn't sorry

the night we said goodbye
i felt a crumbling school
my skin was sensitized
to air that rushed in cool
oh !
my teacher's eyes
were gentle as any man's have been

there are no superstars
there is no superman
there's only everyone
i learn from whom i can
oh, my teacher died
and i felt sorry
but i wasn't sorry...

my teacher died
and i'm a student now
of whom i cannot tell
of what i cannot tell !
