It sounds like you only have the public key. You can try the description
manually to check.
gpg --decrypt < ~/.password-store/foo.gpg
The public key can be used to insert (encrypt) but you will need the
private key in order to show (decrypt) the passwords. This is because
pass uses asymmetric cryptography.
