<i>[Verse 1:]</i>
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

<i>[Chorus:]</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

<i>[Verse 2:]</i>
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

<i>[Bridge:]</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
