Billy Bragg
Swallow My Pride
Here are the photos that I keep
Here's the empty bed where I lay my head to sleep
I dream about you but my dreams will not come true
Till I'll swallow my pride and get back home to you
I tell myself I'm in the right
That don't keep me warm through another lonely night
Can't live without you, even though you make me blue
Got to swallow my pride and get back home to you
I know your love for me is deep
But I'm the man who makes you cry yourself to sleep
Oh how can a man be strong?
If he can't even lift up the telephone and say he's wrong
If I want you back again then I know what I must do
Got to swallow my pride and get back home to you
Swallow my pride and get back home to you
