How To See The Sunrise

Ben Sollee


Oh teach me baby 
Oh Lord, yes, a little show-and-tell 
How to keep from loving you 
Now should I fence in my heart baby 
Lord, keep it in the shade 
Give it all the fruit it could want 
Except yours 

Teach me baby, well, one more time 
Just exactly how far you are away 
Should I stop walking now baby 
When in the day 
You know i don't need no map 
Yes, i'll find my way 

Teach me baby, oh, i promise i'll get it this time 
How to hold a bird in my hand and watch it grow 
See those feathers bloom 
But don't let it fly 
Even though that's what it's suppossed to do 

Teach me baby, mmm, one last time 
How to see the sun rise 
In the dead of night 
Oh, cos that's how it feels baby 
Cos you don't feel that way too
