Jimmie Dale Gilmore – I Was the One

I was the one who taught her to kiss

The way that she kisses you now

And you know the way she touches your cheek

Well I taught her how

I was the one who taught her to cry

When she wants you under her spell

The sight of her tear drives you out of your mind

I taught her so well

And then one day I had my love

As perfect as could be

She lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried

And it was all for me

Oh, I’ll never know who taught her to lie

And now that it’s over and done

Who learned the lesson when she broke my heart

I was the one

And then one day I had my love

As perfect as could be

She lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried

And it was all for me

Oh, I’ll never know who taught her to lie

And now that it’s over and done

Who learned the lesson when she broke my heart

I was the one
