Lyrics Roger Miller

Roger Miller

I'm Gonna Teach My Heart To Bend

You conjure up your courage and you finally make the

telephone call

You get a busy signal else it rings and no-one answers at

all

And then your mind begins imagining things that could or

couldn't be so

I know the feelin' that you're feelin' it's a feelin'

that I'm feelin'

And I want you to know

I'm gonna teach my heart to bend instead of breakin'

Teach myself to lean and not to fall

Teach my heart to bend instead of breakin'

I've taken all I can take and that's all

I'm gonna teach my heart to bend instead of breakin'

Teach myself to lean and not to fall

Teach my heart to bend instead of breakin'

I've taken all I can take and that's all
