Foolish Pride - Joan Armatrading

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
