(words and music by Daniel Warren)
The day you came I smiled a little
The day you left, I cried a lot
I called my mother she said,
"Take a lesson from love."
After all this love, this is what I've got
If this is what love has got to teach me
I want to be your teacher you the lessons of love
The next time we spoke was on the telephone
You said you loved me but, "It just won't work."
You said, "I'd always think of you fondly."
How could I fall for such a jerk
If this is what love has got to teach me
I want to be your teacher, I want to teach you the lessons of love
If this is what love has got to show me, I want to be your teacher
I want to show you the lessons of love
The last time we spoke was on the telephone
All liquored up you said you made a mistake
I thought to myself is this some kind of joke
"You love me and you want to come home to stay?"
If this is what love has got to teach me
I want to be your teacher, I want to teach you the lessons of love
