goin' down with my pride

i don't know how much pain and ache, the average heart can take, it seems as if i've been back for more, one too many times before, fool me once, well shame on you, make it twice, guess i'm the fool, you know there comes a time to go, even though i love you so, i'm goin' down with my pride, losing love, but saving face, being strong at any price, knowin' there'll be hell to pay, standing up to walk away, well, i can hold my head up high, i might drown, but i'm goin' down with my pride, now if i were you and you were me, maybe then we both could see, why you need me one more time, and you'd understand why i'm, goin' down with my pride, losing love, but saving face, being strong at any price, just knowin' there'll be hell to pay, standing up to walk away, well, i can hold my head up high, i might drown, but i'm goin' down with my pride, goin' down with my pride, losing love, but saving face, being strong at any price, just knowin' there'll be hell to pay, standing up to walk away, well, i can hold my head up high, i might drown, but i'm goin' down with my pride
