the proud one

livin' is dyin' 'cause love you left me cryin'

now there's no use tryin' to go on

each night and day baby

pretendin' there'll be a happy endin'

burning down deep inside

got a heart break that i can't hide

i'm not the proud one

i need you

i'm beggin' to you baby please

you're the proud one

believe me

this big man is down on his knees

baby please

oh baby

remember

when you were warm and tender

beggin' me surrender to your charm

you gave me your sweet lips

said use them

oh

why did i abuse them

didn't know good from bad

girl i didn't know what i had

i'm not the proud one

i need you

i'm beggin' to you baby please

you're the proud one

believe me

this big man is down on his knees

baby please

oh baby i love you

please come back

i need you

i need you

i'm not the proud one

i need you

i'm beggin' to you baby please
