Carlene Carter Too Proud Lyrics

Too Proud Lyrics

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
