Ackee Music, Inc ASCAP

It could never be
Someone like you could part from me
You the open seas,
me with my long hair and my jeans

Every where I go
A crowd of people stop to stare
They can't see it's you
But they don't believe,
but it's me who's standing there

Proud, Ooo that makes me proud
Proud, that it makes me proud

Years don't mean a thing
In fact it fills my mind with pride
When people see it's you
You know they can't believe it's me beside your side

Proud, Ooo that makes me proud
Proud, that it makes me proud

Makes me so proud,
yes you make me so proud

Every where I go
A crowd of people stop to stare
They can't see it's you
But they don't believe,
but it's me who's standing there

Proud, Ooo that makes me proud
Proud, that it makes me proud

Makes me so proud,
yes you make me so proud
