GOING DOWN WITH MY PRIDE
Writers: Robert Byrne, Susan Longacre

 

I DON’T KNOW HOW MUCH PAIN AND ACHE
THE AVERAGE HEART CAN TAKE
SEEMS THAT I’VE BEEN BACK FOR MORE
ONE TOO MANY TIMES BEFORE

YOU TOLD 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

CHORUS
I’M GOING DOWN WITH MY PRIDE
LOSING LOVE, BUT SAVING FACE
BEING STRONG AT ANY PRICE
KNOWING THERE’LL BE HELL TO PAY
STANDING UP TO WALK AWAY
BUT I CAN HOLD MY HEAD UP HIGH
I MAY DROWN, BUT I’M GOING DOWN WITH MY PRIDE

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

CHORUS

SOLO
