Teach You To Love Lyrics

Teach You To Love lyrics

They teach you to read

 They teach you to write

 They teach you to say

 Your prayers at night

 They teach you good manners

 And all that stuff

 

 But they don't teach you how to love

 

 Dad taught me fishin'

 Baitin' the hook

 Mama taught me how

 To sew and cook

 I know that they tried

 But what I'm dreamin' of,

 

 Is that someone's gonna teach me how to love

 

 Anyone can move a mountain

 If they work hard enough

 If it was only that easy

 To move someone to love

 

 They teach you to hurt

 They teach you to hate

 And learn to hold back

 Till it's just too late

 Then they teach you to run

 When the goin' gets tough

 

 But they don't teach you how to love

 

 They teach you to dance

 They teach you to sing

 These days they teach you

 Everything

 I know why my heart

 Feels like it does

 

 If someone's gonna teach me how to love

 

 Please won't you teach me how to love
