too cute not to post

Just came from my last class and boy, are they cuties. They prepared a surprise for me by singing a song, in English. James Blunt's "Goodbye my lover," changed to "Goodbye my teacher" to be a bit more appropriate, of course. Here it is:

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
Cause I saw the end before we'd begun.
Yes I saw you were American with your funny accent
So we did our best
when we were your guests.
It may be over but it won't stop there.
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
Your lessons were really cool
And we tried to respect the rules.
We'll never forget you
Our thoughts will be with you forever
We wish we could be in your luggage.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my teacher,
goodbye my friend.
You have been the one,
You have been the one for us.

Whatever it might lack in marketability it makes up for in sweetness! They wanted to take a picture with me and have my email address, and one boy decided I was pretty so he took my picture and put it in his cell phone with a heart and flower frame. Don't worry, his teacher told him he was too young. Oh, sophomores. Plus, after an outing with my favorite class of seniors yesterday, they tracked me down today to give me a card with their emails (and said I was their favorite assistant ever!) These kids are too cute, I'm going to miss (most) of them. If all goes as planned I'll have over 100 more to deal with come fall, though!!

Just wanted to share my pleasure!
