(Dolly Parton/Gene Golden)
|
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
|
|
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
|
|
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
|
|
Can't you reach me
|
And teach me to trust
|
