The Teacher and the Girl each have their own reasons for supporting the Prodigy

[Teacher]
Where am I going?
How did this happen?
My life has unfolded
Depressingly average

But if I support him
Help him reach his potential
He'll be my contribution
I can still make my mark
My name will live on!

[Girl]
His shyness is charming
I wish I could reach him
He's strangely disarming
I hope I can free him

[Teacher]: I know I can help him
[Girl]: He needs someone like me
[Teacher]: To reach his potential
[Girl]: To learn how to feel
[Teacher]: He'll be my contribution
[Girl]: I wish he'd let me in
[Teacher]: They'll remember my name
[Girl]: Let me help him to live
[Teacher]: My claim to fame
