Well, teach me baby

Oh Lord, yes, a little show-and-tell

How to keep from loving you

Now should I fence in my heart baby

Lord, keep it in the shade

Give it all the fruit it could want

Except yours



Teach me baby, well, one more time

Just exactly how far you are away

Should I start walking now baby

When in the day

You know i don't need no map

Yes, i'll find my way



Teach me baby, oh, i promise i'll get it this time

How to hold a bird in my hand and watch it grow

See those feathers bloom

But don't let it fly

Even though that's what it's supposed to do



Teach me baby, mmm, one last time

How to see the sun rise

In the dead of night

Oh, cos that's how it feels baby

Cos you don't feel that way too
