"Proud (Alternative)" lyrics

"Proud (Alternative)"

We used to row sometimes
'Bout what was on your mind
You'd tell me every time
You're so sick and tired

But I had everything I need
Satisfaction guaranteed
And even when the days were hard and exhausting
Even the small things
Keeping me up all night

If you could see me now
If we could travel through time somehow
If you could see me now
Would I make you proud?
And if you could see me now
If you could follow my life somehow
If you could see me now
Would I make you proud
Like you made me proud
I wish you could see me now

I used to know sometimes
Just what was on your mind
You'd tell me every time
You're so sick and tired

How I had everything to lose
That I should never sing the blues
And even when the days were hard and exhausting
Dozens of small things
Keeping me focused right

If you could see me now
If we could travel through time somehow
If you could see me now
Would I make you proud?
And if you could see me now
If you could follow my life somehow
If you could see me now
Would I make you proud
Like you made me proud
I wish you could see me now

But I had everything I need
Satisfaction guaranteed
And even when the days were hard and exhausting
Even the small things
Keeping me up all night

If you could see me now
If we could travel through time somehow
If you could see me now
Would I make you proud?
And if you could see me now
If you could follow my life somehow
If you could see me now
Would I make you proud
Like you made me proud
I wish you could see me now

See me now, see me now
I wish you could see me now
See me now, see me now
I wish you could see me now
