Текст песни: Not a Matter of Pride + перевод

she knows, he thinks about her, though the times are not so grand

but you can only play the cards you’re holding in your hands

she knows he thinks of leavn', doesn’t want to let him go

while there’s something left unfinished, something that she needs to know

she says «let's decorate the bedroom, D I Y* from the super store.»

but he’s five cans down a sixpack, he’s not listening anymore

yet she feels, his heart is kinder then he wants to let her think

so she exercises patience, does the dishes in the sink

Take your time till you decide,

it’s a matter of love not a matter of pride

when people get close, they sometimes collide.

Oh, how the truth gets turned into lies.

He says «I wish I had some money

let’s show this town a thing or two,

see my woman let her hair down like she always wanted to

though I’m just a weekend dreamer, still my heart’s not far away

would she be better if I leave her or better if I stay?

Take your time till you decide,

it’s a matter of love not a matter of pride

when people get close, they sometimes collide

oh, how the truth gets turned into lies

he doen’t want another woman, she doesn’t look at other men

an affair might be exciting, yet disappoint you in the end

they both know there’s something missing

floating just beyond their reach

in this lover’s search and rescue will they find, what they might keep?

Take your time till you decide,

it’s a matter of love not a matter of pride

when people get close, they sometimes collide

oh, how the truth gets turned into lies
