This Heart Of Mine
Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby
Teacher, teacher
There's so much I'm longin' to know
'cause my heart has been all aglow
From the moment we met
Teacher, make me, make me
Make me the teacher's pet
Teacher, teacher
Educate me with a caress
Teach me nothin' less than a lesson
I'll never forget
Teacher, make me, make me
Make me the teacher's pet
I read more in your lovin' eyes
Than in any book from the shelf
I don't have to tell you
You're in a class by yourself
Kiss me, kiss me
After that, please kiss me again
Show me all that special attention
You'll never regret
'cause I'll do my home work diligently
Till we're both at least a hundred and three
Teacher, hold me, kiss me
Make me the teacher's pet
I read more in your lovin' eyes
Than in any book from the shelf
I don't have to tell you
You're in a class all by yourself
Kiss me, kiss me
After that, please kiss me again
Show me all that special attention
You'll never regret
'cause I'll do my home work diligently
Till we're both at least a hundred and three
Teacher, hold me, kiss me
Make me the teacher's pet!
Show me that you love me
Oh, teacher, make me your pe-et!
There's so much I'm longin' to know
'cause my heart has been all aglow
From the moment we met
Teacher, make me, make me
Make me the teacher's pet
Teacher, teacher
Educate me with a caress
Teach me nothin' less than a lesson
I'll never forget
Teacher, make me, make me
Make me the teacher's pet
I read more in your lovin' eyes
Than in any book from the shelf
I don't have to tell you
You're in a class by yourself
Kiss me, kiss me
After that, please kiss me again
Show me all that special attention
You'll never regret
'cause I'll do my home work diligently
Till we're both at least a hundred and three
Teacher, hold me, kiss me
Make me the teacher's pet
I read more in your lovin' eyes
Than in any book from the shelf
I don't have to tell you
You're in a class all by yourself
Kiss me, kiss me
After that, please kiss me again
Show me all that special attention
You'll never regret
'cause I'll do my home work diligently
Till we're both at least a hundred and three
Teacher, hold me, kiss me
Make me the teacher's pet!
Show me that you love me
Oh, teacher, make me your pe-et!
This Heart Of Mine
Bing Crosby's 1944 recording of 'This Heart Of Mine' stands as a quintessential example of his mastery of the romantic ballad. Delivered with his signature warm, intimate vocal style, the track captures the emotional vulnerability characteristic of his post-war era recordings. As a staple of his discography, the song exemplifies the smooth, orchestral arrangements that defined Crosby's approach to pop and standards during the mid-1940s. It remains a cherished piece in the canon of American vocal music, reflecting the era's focus on heartfelt storytelling and polished studio performance.
