Teach Me How to Be Loved

One foot onto the ice
I hold my breath
And try to believe
Can I look at you with different eyes
Like the girl that I was
When I was 17
The fallen empires
The shattered glass
The wicked echos of my past
Ive seen it all before
Thats why Im asking
Will you still be here tomorrow
Or will you leave
In the dead of the night
So your waves dont crash around me
Im staying one step ahead of the tide
Will you leave me
Lost in my shadows
Or will you pull me
Into your light
Teach me how to be loved
Teach me how to be loved
I got caught up in a daze
Of the wine and roses
Such a sweet escape
But I watched it all slip away
Like running water from my hands
Raining on this picture land
The fallen empires
The shattered glass
The wicked echos of my past
Ive seen it all before
Thats why Im asking
Will you still be here tomorrow
Or will you leave
In the dead of the night
So your waves dont crash around me
Im staying one step
Ahead of the tide
Will you leave me
Lost in my shadows
Or will you pull me
Into your light
Teach me how to be loved
Can I give myself
Just one more second chance
And put my trust in love
Please dont hurt me
If I make myself like
A feather in you hand
And put my trust in love
Please dont hurt me
Will you still be here tomorrow
Or will you leave
In the dead of the night
So your waves dont crash around me
Im staying one step aheadof the tide
Will you leave me lost in my shadows
Or will you pull me into your light
Teach me how to be loved
Teach me how to be loved
