Gene Mitchell A Teacher's Dream (A Tribute to Teachers) lyrics

Verse 1
I watched you walk through the classroom door
I watched you grow and I watched you soar
Above all the rest, you would not be outdone
You did your best, you were second to none
You were a teacherÂ’s dream

Verse 2
I cannot take credit, but I do take pride
It was my pleasure to help and to guide
Every girl and boy, in reaching your goals
You were my joy, my heart and my soul
You were a teacherÂ’s dream

Chorus
You were the joy of a lifetime
The provider of my self-esteem
I am so proud of each and every one of you
You have fulfilled a teacherÂ’s dream

Bridge

A teacherÂ’s goal is to teach every child
With patience, skill and persistence
A teacherÂ’s dream is to look back one day
And know, I made a difference

Verse 3
Children grow up and face a future unsure
Knowledge is power, it will help you endure
So become whatever your heart tells you to be
Each one of you will always be special to me

Chorus
You were the joy of a lifetime
The provider of my self-esteem
I am so proud of each and every one of you
You have fulfilled a teacherÂ’s dream
Tag
You have fulfilled, and you are, a teacherÂ’s dream
