Too Damn Stubborn

Intro

Pride

Pride, pride (ooh-ooh, yeah)

Pride

Verse 1

You came in to my room last night, I know you had to

'Cause I can tell you're hurting still

You haven't cried, but in your eyes, I see the burning

The way your tears are burning holes right through that pillowcase you're using still

Chorus

Pride, you were too damn stubborn

You just couldn't say you were wrong

You let it slip away

Pride, now it tears you up inside

But you can never take it back, babe

You just let it slip away (yeah, babe)

Verse 2

Now he's walking all over town with somebody new

And everyone is saying that he's never been happier with you

And though you hate to hear it, don't pretend that it's not true

Because you know that if you had only let yourself go

He'd be standing right here next to you

Chorus

Pride, you can't win if you never bend

And if you never learn, you'll never bend

You've gotta learn to give in sometimes

Pride, now it cuts you like a knife

But you can never take it back, babe

You just let it slip away (ooh-ooh)

Verse 3

It's gonna take you half your life to realize, girl

That you'll never get it back again

You got your way, but can I say you really lost it?

'Cause you can't kiss the ground you're laying on and expect it

To ever be your friend

Chorus

Pride, now your world is all alone

And all you got to show is the words

You can never take back, babe

Pride, can we call it even now?

Or are you still too damn proud, girl?

Pride, pride, pride
