[Verse 1]
Two broken hearts lonely, looking like
Houses where nobody lives
Two people each having so much pride inside
Neither forgives
The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
It's my belief, pride is the chief cause in the decline
In the number of husbands and wives
Man and a woman, woman and a man
Some can, some can't and some can't

[Verse 2]
Two broken hearts lonely, looking like
Houses where nobody lives
Two people each having so much pride inside
Neither forgives
The angry words spoken in haste
Oh, it's such a waste of two lives
It's my belief, pride is the chief cause in the decline
Of the number of husbands and wives
Man and a woman, woman and a man
Some can, some can't, some can, some can't
