Alice Peacock Taught Me Well Lyrics

Taught Me Well Lyrics

You hate to be ignored

Or maybe you're just bored

So I opened up my
mail and there's a note from you

You say you're checkin' in

To see
how I have been

Hey I'm doing so much better if you'd like to know the
truth

You taught me well

You were my teacher and I thank you

For the hell you put me through I'm very grateful

'cause ' I finally
really learned what was important

In my life

And I thank my lucky
stars everyday I'm not your wife

You're selfishly absorbed

You're
childish and a bore

And I used to hold the anger in my stomach like a
fist

But in time it was quite clear

That only I was suffering
here

And having gratitude for you was the way out of this

[Chorus]

You taught me well...that life is for living

It's not
about taking, it's all about giving

You taught me well that sometimes
what we

Want is staring us right in the face

And the power of
forgiveness, the power of

Grace...of Grace
