LEANING HOW TO LOVE YOU
By John Hiatt
(BMG)

I'm thirty-four years old
And I've come to you
Baby I don't even know how
I got through
From the first kiss in the schoolyard
To the last heart broke in two
I didn't know it would be so hard
Learning how to love you

There was a life that I was living
In some cracked rearview
Where no future was given
To a heart untrue
Still I thought that I was so strong
That my will would force me through
I didn't know it would be so long
Learning how to love you

I might have never realized
The courage in your kiss
Or the sweet forgiveness in your eyes

Babe, I know you've walked a mile
In someone else's shoes
Maybe you left some faces smiling
Walking off those blues
And I don't pretend to know how
You ever saw it through
Cause I only got to where I am right now
Learning how to love you
Learning how to love you
Learning how to love you ...
