YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO CRY
(Hoyt Axton)


Hoyt Axton & Tanya Tucker - 1977

Also recorded by: Matthew C. Axton





BOTH:
In dreams my memories ramble
Out where my heart cannot go
Back to the love and the laughter
Lord, what a far didtant shore

And how many nights did I want you
How many times did I try
You know you taught me to love you
But did you know you taught me how to cry, oh, baby
Did you know you taught me how to cry

HA: Sometimes I dream of a woman
TT: Sometimes I dream of the sky
HA: You know you taught me to dream, girl
TT: But did you know you taught me how to cry

BOTH:
And how many nights did I want you
How many times did I try
You know you taught me to love you
But did you know you taught me how to cry, oh, baby
Did you know you taught me how to cry

(Instrumental Break)

HA: Sometimes I dream of a woman
TT: Sometimes I dream of the sky
BOTH:
You know you taught me to love you
But did you know you taught me how to cry, oh, baby

How many nights did I want you
How many times did I try
You know you taught me to love you
But did you know you taught me how to cry, oh, baby
Did you know you taught me how to cry
