Proud - Johnny Crawford

We had a quarrel the other day

And I just let you walk away

'Cause I was proud

So proud and strong

Yes I was much too proud to say I was wrong

You turned back crying and called to me

But I just stood there silently

'Cause I was proud

So proud and strong

Yes I was much too proud to say I was wrong

Some other guy might have crawled to you

And said don’t go, I need you so

But I wouldn’t do it

No, I couldn’t do it

And so I let you say good-bye

And I was proud to let you cry

Proud I held my head up high

And now I’m just a proud and lonely guy
