Teach Me to Forget

You taught me how to love

With all my heart

With all my soul

I trusted you

And now you say

We'll have to live apart

A thing I don't know

How to do



You said someday

I'd find somebody new

And I'll have

Not one regret

But stay a while

If what you say is true

Stay and teach me to forget

You taught me how

To worship you alone

And now you say

You'll have to go

And people call me

On the telephone

Just to say I told you so



I know now that I

Only learned to live

On the night

When first we met

God above will teach me

To forgive

But stay

And teach me to forget

Please stay

And teach me to forget
