Olivia Newton-John - Small Talk And Pride lyrics

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
