Debbie Gibson Teach You To Love
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
