Small Talk And Pride Lyrics - Olivia Newton-john

(John Farrar) 

We never really had the chance to let each other know 

We never really had the time to let our feelings show 

Small talk kept us going 

When the only words to say 

Were how I long to hold you 

Pride locked the words away 

I never had the confidence to think that you could care 

I never looked into your eyes to see if love was there 

I talked it over with myself and silently agreed 

Your heart was in a high place unreachable to me

I waited too long for a sign from you 

Reached for a line that you never threw 

Small talk and pride kept us from getting together 

Now there's never a day you're not on my mind 

Saying the words we could never find 

Small talk and pride took you from my life forever 

I'll never hold the cards again 

To win a love so real 

I know I'd gamble everything 

But Mistress Fate won't deal 

I just have to be content to learn by my mistakes 

Our hearts were just a breath away 

Now they're far enough to break

I waited too long for a sign from you 

Reached for a line that you never threw 

Small talk and pride kept us from getting together 

Now there's never a day you're not on my mind 

Saying the words we could never find 

Small talk and pride took you from my life forever
