[00:11.66]The time has come for closing books and long last looks must end
[00:27.31]And as I leave I know that I am leaving my best friend
[00:41.93]A friend who taught me right from wrong and weak from strong
[00:48.26]That's a lot to learn,
[00:50.89]What, what can I give you in return?
[01:01.04]If you wanted the moon
[01:02.93]I would try to make a start
[01:05.90]But I, would rather you let me give my heart
[01:13.77]To you, with love
[01:27.36]Those schoolgirl days of telling tales and biting nails are gone, yeah
[01:42.31]But in my mind I know that they live on and on and on and on
[01:57.40]But how do you thank someone
[02:00.96]Who has taken you from crayons to perfume?
[02:06.37]Well it it's not easy, but I'll try
[02:16.16]If you wanted the sky
[02:18.24]I would write across the sky in letters
[02:24.20]That would soar a thousand feet high
[02:28.90]To you, with love
[02:42.83]Those awkward years have hurried by, why did they fly, fly away?
[02:57.72]Why is it Sir, children grow up to be people one day?
[03:13.07]What takes the place of climbing trees,
[03:16.91]And dirty knees, in the world outside?
[03:21.80]What, what is there that I can buy?
[03:31.67]If you wanted the world,
[03:33.69]I'd surround it with a wall, I'd scrawl
[03:41.38]These words with letters ten feet tall
[03:45.27]To you, with love
