Teach Me To Trust by Dolly Parton

Maybe because it's too good to be true
Maybe because i want it so much
Maybe i fear you don't really mean it
For i feel i'm never enough
But i want you more
Than i ever wanted
Anything i can recall
But something inside
Keeps saying you'll hurt me
Do i dare to trust it at all

Chorus:

Teach me to trust
Darling you must
Or else i'll go out of my mind
When i'm not near you
I always fear you
Have somebody else on the line

Is it a fear
Or is it a knowing
A jealousy born out of truth
'cause i watch you flirt
And it's how you embrace
Them with your eyes
That say i could lose

2nd chorus:

Teach me to trust
Make me feel loved
Tell me i've no need to fear
Just make me feel safe
Whatever it takes
Tell me what i need to hear

'cause i need to feel
Important and special
Your cherished and only true love
And sometimes i think
I'll die from this feeling
If you don't teach me to trust

Tag:

Can't you reach me
And teach me to trust
