Proud Paroles

say you want me as I am,
say I'm someone in your eyes,
that's all I want it to be
Oh, just let me go, I know one day if I'm allowed,
if I'm allowed, one day I'll make you proud

All of your life you've taken chances
you've broke the rules time after time
All of your life you've gone your own way,
so give me this chance, and I'll go mine

Why can't you say you love me as I am,
say you want me as I am,
say I'm someone in your eyes,
that's all I want it to be
Oh, just let me go, I know one day if I'm allowed,
if I'm allowed, one day I'll make you proud

Oh, one day I'll make you proud
mmm I'm on my knees so help me please

Please don't shoot me down
Though you can't see it now
Someday I'll make you proud
