[Verse 1]
She was heaven sent
On the wings of, something blessed
I'm a jealous man with jealous bones
Cut my tongue, on words we never had
So wise, so young
[Pre-Chorus]
Never thought I'd breathe again
Never thought I'd breathe again
Never thought I'd breathe again
Never thought I'd breathe again
[Chorus]
And I hope I make you proud
Because I'd follow your way
Pick me up from the ground
Intertwined we lay
Intertwinеd we lay
[Verse 2]
There's an ocеan's breadth, across our heartbeat
Your head on my chest, is sweeter than I've ever known
The nights still young, just stay forever
There's rust on my tongue
[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm moving onto better things
I'm moving onto better things
I'm moving onto better things
I'm moving onto better things
[Chorus]
And I hope I make you proud
Because I'd follow your way
Pick me up from the ground
Intertwined we lay
Intertwined we lay
The sun will shine today
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Chorus]
And I hope I make you proud
Because I'd follow your way
Pick me up from the ground
Intertwined we lay
The sun will shine today
Never felt this way

Leo Wyndham:
“Make You Proud” is about insecurity in new love. Questioning oneself constantly and overthinking at every turn – but still having this incredible patience and support from a partner.
