Steve opens up to his lover in his room, providing reassurance and company, leaving himself vulnerable to them, resulting in Steve being manipulated and treated poorly.
[Verse]
Hey, I fall in love with you
I don't know where I am
You're runnin' through my mind
And then you show me love
In my room, in my room
(Uh)
Hey, you went away to save
Yourself from all the rain
And then I picked you up
And then I showed you love
And then we talked
Let our guards down (Down, down)
I say, "You, you took me all around
Then treat me like a dog
And make me walk for miles
And then you held me up
I will never not love you"
Not love you, uh
[Outro]
About my pride
About my pride
About my pride
About my prize (There's something 'bout my pride)
About my prize (There's something 'bout my loving)
About my pride (There's something 'bout my pride)
About my pride (There's something 'bout my loving)
About my pride
Oh, yeah
Oh
