[Verse 1]
I watched you pack that car by the curb
Old tape on the box, little tears on the shirt
You said, “I’m scared,” I said, “That’s okay”
Big dreams look heavier on the first day

And you, with the look in your eye
Like you were born to outrun goodbye
I saw the fire you tried to hide
I knew then, you’d be alright

[Pre-Chorus]
I know the road gets long
I know it shakes your knees
But I saw what you got
When you don’t know you’ve got what you need

[Chorus]
I’m proud of you both
Yeah, I’m proud of you both
You kept your hearts open
When the whole world said close

I’m proud of you both
Even when it got cold
You made your own way
And you made it look bold
(proud of you both)

[Verse 2]
He still calls your mama on Sundays
You still dance in the kitchen when it rains
Small town dust on your boots, that shine in your smile
Looks like you walked through hard times proud all the while

And you, still steady as stone
Still building a home from a place unknown
I’ve seen love survive a broken map
And baby, you both did that

[Pre-Chorus]
So go on, take your space
Go on, claim your ground
Every mile that hurt
Only made your name ring louder now

[Chorus]
I’m proud of you both
Yeah, I’m proud of you both
You kept your hearts open
When the whole world said close

I’m proud of you both
Even when it got cold
You made your own way
And you made it look bold
(proud of you both)

[Bridge]
One day the ache turned soft
One day the doubt let go
Now every scar you wear
Says more than you know

If they ever ask you how
You got that kind of glow
Just smile and say
We grew from the road

[Final Chorus]
I’m proud of you both
Yeah, I’m proud of you both
You kept your hearts open
When the whole world said close

I’m proud of you both
And I need you to know
You made your own way
And you made it look bold
(proud of you both)
