Proud

How do you start to write a song
For someone that words can't describe?
Do you begin with writing wrongs?
Or memories of your lives?
Maybe you tell a tale or two
Of things they have done for you
I might not know where to start
But I can tell you I
Am proud
To have you in my life
To grow up by your side
You gave your love to me
Unconditionally, and so
I'm proud
Of who I am today
From all the gifts you gave
You've inspired me to be proud
To love like you
Every smile or every sigh
You always know just what to do
Some chocolate cake or apple pie
A warm glass of milk to go too
And when it seems my world is gone
You're telling me to hang on
I might not know where to go
But I can tell you I
What do you say
When saying "Thank you" is not quite right
I might not know where to end
But I can tell you I
