You Taught Me

You taught me to enjoy all life has to offer
You taught me to stand up proud as a soldier
And you only wanted the very best for me
You taught me to laugh when tears were falling
You taught me to run instead of walking
Life moves to fast to just let time slip away
And…

You taught me to love
You taught me to live
You held my hand
Gave all you could give
You taught me to trust
You taught me to fight
You held my hand
I knew I’ll be alright
Cause you taught me to love
Yea you taught me to love you

You taught me to take a chance on loving
You taught me to open up my closed heart
And you were with me even when we were apart
You taught me courage when I was frightened
You taught me faith when I lost all hope
Life is too great to let your dreams slip away
And…

You taught me to love
You taught me to live
You held my hand
Gave all you could give
You taught me to trust
You taught me to fight
You held my hand
I knew I’ll be alright
Cause you taught me to love
Yea you taught me to love you

You taught me to never give up my dreams
You taught me to never hold back because of fears
And you never asked for more than I could give
You taught me to see the sun in the rain
You taught me to take a risk when in safety
Life keeps moving and opportunities can slip away

You taught me to love
You taught me to live
You held my hand
Gave all you could give
You taught me to trust
You taught me to fight
You held my hand
I knew I’ll be alright
Cause you taught me to love
Yea you taught me to love you

Cause you taught me to love
Yea you taught me to love you
