FOOLISH PRIDE

by Travis Tritt

She stayed up all night
and cried into her pillow
and fought off the urge

to just break down and call.
Last night to find the fault
seemed so darned easy

but now who's to blame
don't matter much at all
she thinks if she calls him

it just shows weakness
so the hurt goes on
with every tear she's cried

and it's sad to see
a good love falls to pieces
chalk another heart break up

to foolish pride
turn out the lights
the competitions over

the stubborn souls are
the losers here tonight
and while the bridges burn another

hard hard lesson's learned
as in the ashes passion slowly dies
and this romance goes down

to foolish pride

He relives every word
they,spoke in anger
he walks the floor

and punches out the wall
to apologize to her
would be so simple

but instead he cries
I'll be damned if I'll crawl
if he loses her

he's losed his best friend
and more than just
a lover can provide

so he wrestles with emotions
that defeat him
chalk another love lost up

to foolish pride
turn out the lights
the competitions over

the stubborn souls are
the losers here tonight
and while the bridges burn another

hard hard lesson's learned
as in the ashes passion slowly dies
and this romance goes down

to foolish pride
chalk another love lost up
to foolish pride

chalk another love lost up
to foolish pride
