(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 you look just like a puppy when it`s hurt
But you had this lesson coming for so very long
Our sins all 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
