Píseň: Foolish Pride

Interpret:
Joan Armatrading
Album:
The Key
I've been a coward
And I've run away
But I'll be a hero today
It's caution to the wind
This time I will be satisfied
I'll keep on going
And forget my pride
Forget my foolish pride


It's important
Take it seriously
Don't turn away
No don't turn
I'm showing all my hand
Say yes
And we can hug and kiss
Say no
But it won't stay like this
Forget your foolish pride


Say yes
And we can hug and kiss
Say no
But it won't stay like this
Forget your foolish pride


I've been a fool
I can see it now
But I'll be a wise man today
No grass under my feet
This time we're gonna get it right
A stupid quarrel
Won't upset our lives
Forget this foolish pride
