Someone Had To Teach You

Written by Harlan Howard

Yes, I'll take you back again, you knew I would
For I go on lovin' you that's understood
But it's the first time you've come back with tears in your eyes
Lately someone's taught you how to cry

Someone had to teach you I didn't have the heart to
Hurt you just like you've been hurting me
Someone had to teach you things it's time that you knew
Now maybe you'll be satisfied with me

Someone took your heart and rubbed it in the dirt
And that look on your face tells me you hurt
But you had this lesson coming for so very long
Our sins have a way of coming home

Someone had to teach you I didn't have the heart to
Hurt you just like you've been hurting me
Someone had to teach you things it's time that you knew
Now maybe you'll be satisfied with me

Now maybe you'll be satisfied with me
