Teach Me To Trust

(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
