You hate to be ignored
|
Or maybe you're just bored
|
So I opened up my mail and there's a note from you
|
You say you're checkin' in
|
To see how I have been
|
Hey I'm doing so much better if you'd like to know the truth
|
You taught me well
|
You were my teacher and I thank you
|
For the hell you put me through I'm very grateful
|
Cuz ' I finally really learned what was important
|
In my life
|
And I thank my lucky stars everyday I'm not your wife
|
You're selfishly absorbed
|
You're childish and a bore
|
And I used to hold the anger in my stomach like a fist
|
But in time it was quite clear
|
That only I was suffering here
|
And having gratitude for you was the way out of this
|
[Chorus]
|
You taught me well...that life is for living
|
It's not about taking, it's all about giving
|
You taught me well that sometimes what we
|
Want is staring us right in the face
|
And the power of forgiveness, the power of
|
Grace...of Grace
|

Taught Me Well
