Who's Gonna Teach You About Love? lyrics

Before you learned to stand
You had to fall
Before you learned to walk
You had to crawl
Before you learn to love, girl
Ah, you're gonna cry
And you're gonna need somebody
To show you the way
And dry the tears in your eyes

Who's gonna teach you about love, girl?
I'm gonna teach you about love

Before you learned to swim
You had to sink
Before you learned to speak
You had to think
And when you played with fire
You had to get burned
And as the flames grew higher
You stayed away
Till finally you learned

Who's gonna teach you about love, girl?
I'm gonna teach you about love

So if your fall in love
How will you know?
Is there a way to tell?
How will it show?
I think I know the answers
I should by now
I've loved you all my life, girl
Someday you'll learn
But I don't know how

Who's gonna teach you about love, girl?
I'm gonna teach you about love

Before you learned to stand
You had to fall
Before you learned to walk
You had to crawl
Before you learned to swim
You had to sink
Before you learned to speak
You had to think

But, who's gonna teach you about love, girl?
Tell me, who's gonna teach you about love?
Baby, I'm gonna teach you about love, girl
I'm gonna teach you about love
