The Sin of Pride

The Undertones

The sin of pride keeps me from walking away - don't walk away
 To join the lines of gods who think of nothing to say - think what to say

 The talk of war won't scare my intentions away - don't walk away
 But talk of love and kiss these ribbons today - think what to say

 The cost of love might make these presents seem small - don't walk away
 But with the thoughts inside that wouldn't matter at all - think what to say

 And I've lost all my friends to be yours
 But pride'll still meet me I'm sure
 And stop me from feeling so hurt

 Pride'll still meet
 Wanting my love - come closer love
 To want me - come closer love
 Keeping that love - come closer love
 Just for me - come closer love

 I've lost ...

 The sin of pride keeps me from walking away - don't walk away
 But keeps inside the things I wanted to say - think what to say

 A look of love leads me from hate to despair - don't walk away
 I look at love it says I shouldn't be there - think what to say

 So she goes again
