Proud

Lyrics

[Intro] Hmm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm [Verse 1] Tired of hurt, only ten All she wants is to fit in Only worse, older she gets Just fourteen, and [Pre-Chorus] Every time she tried to open up, they tore it down Didn't think she'd ever be enough someday [Chorus] I hope when she gets older She holds onto her dreams 'Cause the pain don't last forever, oh, I know If she could only see what I can see right now She would be so proud [Post-Chorus] (Hmm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm) She would be so proud (Hmm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm) [Verse 2] Heavy heart, tear-stained sheets Chased a dream, only sixteen Left her out, called her names Never changed, but [Pre-Chorus] Every time she reached up for the stars, they pulled her down Made her doubt she'd ever get so far, just wait [Chorus] I hope when she gets older She holds onto her dreams 'Cause the pain don't last forever, oh, I know If she could only see what I can see right now She would be so proud [Post-Chorus] (Hmm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm) She would be so proud (Hmm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm) She would be so proud [Bridge] La-la-la, la-la-la La-la-la, la-la-la La-la-la, la-la-la La-la-la, la-la [Chorus] Oh, now that I am older And living out my dreams All the pain was worth it in the end somehow If she could only see what I can see right now She would be so proud [Outro] (Hmm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm) She would be so proud (Hmm-mm-mm, hmm-mm-mm) She would be so proud
