Strike three, bottom of the ninth, And you were batting back the tears
Feelin' like you let the whole world, Down, down, down
You and me, drivin' home in silence, I was searchin' through my words
Tryin' to find the perfect ones, To say, out, loud
Well, I don't remember, What it was I said to you,
But I remember what it was, I wanted you to hear
Proud, I'm just so proud, I don't know how to say it any better
Proud, you make me proud, Win or lose, well it really doesn't matter
'Cause you step up to the plate, Swingin' for the fence,
You're gonna change the world around you, Im convinced
Just look how you're changin' me
We both know that sometimes, You make me crazy
And we both know that sometimes, We let each other down
But I want you to know whatever you do,
Just because you are you, You will always be makin' me
Proud, I'm just so proud, I don't know how to say it any better
Proud, you make me proud, Win or lose, well it really doesn't matter
'Cause you step up to the plate, Swingin' for the fence,
You're gonna change the world around you, Im convinced
Just look how you're changin' me
You're making me proud
You're making me proud
