Too Proud - Carlene Carter

Too proud to say we were wrong

You let me leave you

And you knew that I was gone

Long before I stopped pretending

The one who chose my love so carefully

You should have loved me better

I’m not one to call to blame

Fools at love--they're all the same

Too proud to say they’re wrong

Too proud and then they’re gone

And who was I to think I’d change at all

I’ve always been alone

And bet I often freedom and not a prisoner to the cause

And all my pain was by my own hands

The one who thought that love could last forever

Guess I should have checked my record

'Cause now I see that love is not blind

It just stands frozen watching from behind

Too proud to say I’m wrong

Too proud and then I’m gone

Too proud to say we’re wrong

Too proud it’s all gone
