Pride Lyrics by Paula Toledo

Stay Awhile

2006

[Verse 1]
I've seen you before in this disguise
Didn't open the door, I thought that I
Might just let you in
[Pre-Chorus]
You're convincing, but you still
Left me rinsing
All these doubts that I can't shake
Stumbling over my mistakes
[Chorus]
And I, I, I
Should've known the price
And I, I, I
Should've known the price
To turn you over in my mind
To be seduced and hypnotized
Now I'm wading
In my pride
[Verse 2]
Won't hold my breath over what you say
Your clever tongue has made its way
Did I just let you in?
[Pre-Chorus]
You're convincing, but you still
Left me wincing
All these smiles that you made shine
Wеre backlit to undermine
[Chorus]
And I, I, I
Should'vе known the price
And I, I, I
Should've known the price
To turn you over in my mind
To be seduced and hypnotized
Now I'm wading
In my pride
[Bridge]
Is it inappropriate to turn my back?
(Is it inappropriate to turn my back?)
You father words that don't leave an ounce of tact
(When your other words have got no tact)
I know that I shouldn't take you back
(I know that I shouldn't take you back)
Won't stand here alone, under your attack
[Chorus]
And I, I, I
Should've known the price
And I, I, I
Should've known the price
To turn you over in my mind
To be seduced and hypnotized
Now I'm wading
Now I'm wading
Now I'm wading
In my pride
