Teach Me Lyrics

Contrary to what you think

It wasn't such a long time ago

Contrary to what you choose to believe

I still love you

And you don't know how much I care

I bought you flowers

When all you wanted was for me to hold your hand

And am sorry, sorry

I wrote you letters

When I should have picked up the phone and called you

Now teach me to love you

Then I'll know the words to say

Oh teach me to love you

Then I'll know how to show you that I care

I heard every word you said

Somehow forgot to pay attention to emotion

Thought I was doing everything right

Last thing I expected to find was your bags at the door

Now what am I supposed to tell our children

How do I say we both agreed to walk away

No no, please stay, stay

And teach me to love you

Then I'll know the words to say

Oh teach me to love you

Then I'll know how to show you that I care

I love you - I care

I love you - (Yeah)

I love you - I care

I love you - please stay

And teach, teach me to love you

Then I'll know the words to say

Oh teach me to love you

Then I'll know how to show you that I care
