Lyrics
Pride, sad, splendid liar,
Pride is a deceptive and impressive quality that masks true emotions.
Sworn enemy of love
Pride opposes love and acts as its sworn adversary.
Kept my lips from saying
I refrained from expressing my inner thoughts.
Things I was thinking of.
I kept silent about what I truly felt.
But now my pride you've humbled,
My pride has been diminished or humiliated.
I've cast it to the winds,
I have discarded my pride completely.
Broken, beaten, sick at heart
Emotionally shattered and disheartened.
My confession begins.
I am starting to confess my feelings.
We've played the game of stay away
We've played a game of avoiding each other.
But it cost more that I can pay.
That game has cost more than I can bear.
Without you I can't make my way,
Without you, I'm lost and unable to move forward.
I surrender, dear.
I am giving in, expressing surrender.
I may seem proud, I may act gay,
Reiteration of surrendering due to deep emotions.
It's just a pose, I'm not that way,
-'Cause deep down in my heart I say
-I surrender, dear.
-Little mean things we were doing
-Must have been part of the game,
-Lending a spice to the wooing,
-But I don't care who's to blame.
-When stars appear and shadows fall,
-Why then you'll hear My poor heart call,
-To you my love, my life, my all
-I surrender, dear.
-We've played the game of stay away
Repeating the inability to continue the avoidance game.
But it cost more that I can pay.
-Without you I can't make my way,
-I surrender, dear.
-I may seem proud, I may act gay,
Reaffirming the surrender from the depths of the heart.
It's just a pose, I'm not that way,
-'Cause deep down in my heart I say
-I surrender, dear.
-Little mean things we were doing
Reflecting on past actions, acknowledging their role in the relationship.
Must have been part of the game,
-Lending a spice to the wooing,
-But I don't care who's to blame.
-When stars appear And shadows fall,
Describing the longing for the beloved when night falls.
Why then you'll hear My poor heart call,
-To you my love, my life, my all
