I pass a house party on the side of the street
"Be safe out there" is what she tells me
But she couldn't see me
In the dark
I just waved
I couldn't find the words to say
Goodbye Annie
Would you be proud
Would you be proud of me
I watch the girl closing up across the street
I think it's been a month since we've talked
She looks different
In the dark
Under street lights
Where we once sat, attentive
And talked into the night
Would you be proud
Would you be proud of me
Cause I've tried
I've tried
I've tried
I wish this were easier
(Streetlights passing by)
I wish this were easier
(Memories of you and I)
I wish it were easy for me to let go of you
But it's not
Would you be proud
Would you be proud of me
(I wish this were easier)
Would you be proud
Would you be proud of me
