It's a very ancient saying
But a true and honest thought
That if you become a teacher
By your pupils you'll be taught

As a teacher I've been learning
(You'll forgive me if I boast)
And I've now become an expert
On the subject I like most

Getting to know you, getting to know all about you
Getting to like you, getting to hope you like me
Getting to know you, putting it my way, but nicely
You are precisely
My cup of tea

Getting to know you, getting to feel free and easy
When I am with you, getting to know what to say
Haven't you noticed, suddenly I'm bright and breezy?
Because of all the beautiful and new
Things I'm learning about you
Day by day

(Getting to know you, getting to feel free and easy)
(When we are with you, getting to know what to say)
Haven't you noticed, suddenly I'm bright and breezy?
Because of all the beautiful and new
Things I'm learning about you
Day by day
