“Teaching Me How To Love You” – When Love Becomes a Journey of Growth
Some songs aren’t just meant to be heard — they’re meant to be felt. “Teaching Me How To Love You” by Rory Feek is one of those rare songs. It’s a quiet, heartfelt ballad that tells the story of love not as a perfect feeling, but as a process — a journey of learning, patience, and deep emotional growth.
Rory doesn’t dress the song in fancy words. He sings it like a conversation — honest, tender, and real. In the lyrics, he admits he didn’t always know how to love the right way. He confesses his faults, his blind spots, and how the woman beside him gently, without judgment, taught him what love truly means — not through lectures, but through everyday grace and presence.
This isn’t a song about fairy tale romance. It’s about truth: that love is something we learn. We learn it through the silences, the small mistakes, the hard conversations, and the quiet forgiveness that follows. We learn that loving someone means understanding how they need to be loved — not just offering what’s familiar to us.
“Teaching Me How To Love You” doesn’t rely on dramatic highs or flashy production. Its power is in its stillness. It resonates because it reflects what so many of us experience: the effort, the growth, and the humility required to truly love someone well.
This song reminds us that real love isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being willing to grow, together, one day at a time.
