Songs of Pride...Charley, That Is lyrics

You wanted to know that you could break my heart but I could have told you you could

You just had to see if I'd go to pieces but I could have told you I would
Just think of the time not to mention the trouble

That you threw away on a heart like mine

If you just have to prove that you could destroy me I could have saved you the time

[ steel ]

You think only of yourself I think only of you too

What chance for me is left since both of us love you
We only think we agree on it's not to make you blue

We have a lot in common seems both of us love you seems both of us love you

[ steel ]

How lonely I will be with all the love between us two

None of it belongs to me cause both of us love you

The only part I play is that other fool

All the time yes darling all the time

Through the years through smiles or tears I'll love you
Every day I'll prove it every way

Through the years through smiles or tears I'll love you

Other arms may tempt me but don't let that bother you

For even if they tempt me I'll never be untrue

All the time yes darling all the time

Through the years through smiles or tears I'll love you

Everybody thinks that I walked out on her they're calling me a no good so and so

Why can I make them see that though I walked away

I didn't want to leave she made me go
What makes them think I'll give up everything I love

There's a lot of things that they don't know

I've been accused of everything she's guilty of I didn't want to leave she made me go

You don't know how it feels but someday you will

At the moment you can't see what you're doing to me
You don't know how I feel but someday you will

It don't mean a thing to you all this hurt I'm going through

You don't know how it feels but someday you will

Someday you're gonna know what it's like to be blue

When the one you're hurting me for gets around to hurting you

There is something in your heart weighing heavy on your mind

You need gentle arms to hold you like these gentle arms of mine
You need love and understanding and the shoulder you can cry on

You need someone to rely on you don't have to be alone

Let me help you work it out help you face the situation

Count on me for consolation let me help you work it out

[ piano ]
