With Pride

With Pride By Joeysguy It’s so dark in here, it must be night I see an opening, I can see some light Why are these people pulling on me I guess out there I should be I’m upside down, you hit me and I cried That hurt and left me teary-eyed Who’s this lady you put me alongside Who’s this man staring with so much pride Are they someone that I should know When they leave will I also go This lady says her name is mom She puts out her hands and wants me to come The man is called dad They are so nice and never seem sad Will this good feeling always last Time has gone by and it seemed so fast In the blink of an eye I’ve learned what it is to cry With little suffering and not much sound Mom and dad are now in the ground They said we are of one heart Even in death we can never be apart Now I look at this lady with our baby at her side How beautiful, and I’m so full of pride
