Lyrics:

See the thing about pride is that you need just enough to swallow
head my words but know I'm not the one to follow
so I'm sittin here thinkin on Mulholland Drive comin up with ways just to keep it alive
tryin to prove to you that my heart ain't hollow

you knocked me down i'll get back up again give me a call i'll have a hand to lend
there ain't nothin on the TV tonight
so maybe I should swallow my pride
maybe then we could get on

the thing about words is you gotta know when to use 'em
and after all this time I'm still learnin how to choose 'em
at least I know not to take my advice but learnin from a gypsy man would that be nice
then all i'd have to do is learn how to lose 'em

you knocked me down i'll get back up again give me a call i'll have a hand to lend
there ain't nothin on the TV tonight
so maybe I should swallow my pride
maybe then we could get on

the thing about a feeling is you gotta know when to follow
you gotta get up and go yeah you can't wait around til tomorrow
so I'm sittin here thinkin on Mulholland Drive comin up with ways just to keep it alive
tryin to prove to you that my heart ain't hollow

you knocked me down i'll get back up again give me a call i'll have a hand to lend
there ain't nothin on the TV tonight
so maybe I should swallow my pride
maybe then we could get on
yeah maybe I should swallow my pride
maybe then we could get on
