Teach Me To Love (Album Version)

I want you to hurt me
But it's all just a shade of the dark, I'm afraid
Mourning rain and the one I left behind
I want you to hurt me
But I don't want to fall in mirage, plastered grey
Frowning strength, but your faith is what I find

If you teach me to love
If you teach me to breathe
Oh, I'll paint the beauty for all your needs
If you teach me to love
I promise you'll be stronger then
And I'll burn you with a love that never shades

I want you to hurt me
I'm a casualty of your touch, a pierced dove
All alone with your crimson venting slow
I want you to hurt me
'Cause my pain has drifted away, blinking calm
But I feel dust of salt from down below

If you teach me to love
If you teach me to breathe
Oh, I'll paint the beauty for all your needs
If you teach me to love
I promise you'll be stronger then
And I'll burn you with a love that never shades
Yes, I'll burn you with my love that never shades, yeah

If you teach me to love
If you teach me to breathe
Oh, I'll paint the beauty for all your needs (for all your needs)
If you teach me to love (if you teach me to love)
I promise you'll be stronger then
And I'll burn you with a love that never shades
Yes, I'll burn you with my love that never shades
