What I Learned From Loving You

(russel smith/james h. brown, jr.)

Sometimes i still think of you
Love that's gone by and the things i didn't do
Time heals hearts, so they all say
Passage of years slowly pulls the pain away
But there's still a little tenderness left in everything i do
It's what i learned from loving you
That's what i learned from loving you

Times have changed, i have changed, too
Even my eyes have turned a deeper shade of blue
Well, i guess it's all that crying they went through
It's what i learned from loving you
That's what i learned from loving you

Well, i had too much to learn to hold on to someone like you
And it took losing you to make me see
The man you needed to be

I don't cry, though we're apart
And someday soon someone else will need this heart
And the next time i'm gonna know when a love is true
It's what i learned from loving you
That's what i learned from loving you
That's what i learned from loving you
That's what i learned from loving you
