Lyrics
Its Friday Night and I'm alone again
Wishing I hadn't been so blind
Keep staring at the door, praying you'll walk in
And we'll forget all this wasted time
But we both know with less to drink
Or on another night
You'd never hear me say these words
I'd never say that you were right
(And) they say
Pride goes before
Even a big man's fall
Well baby I was the biggest
The biggest fool of them all
I let you go
And we both know
I wouldn't chase you out that door
But come on home
I'm not proud anymore
I could have said I'm sorry one more time
Then I maybe I wouldn't be saying this to you
But I'm sorry would have meant the blame was mine
And I could never admit that that was true
So here I am, standing here
Saying I was wrong
If you could turn that car around
Before the distance gets too long
(And) they say
Pride goes before
Even a big man's fall
Well baby I was the biggest
The biggest fool of them all
I let you go
And we both know
I wouldn't chase you out that door
But come on home
I'm not proud anymore
Come on home.....
I'm not proud anymore
