So Proud (M. Polacek)
This tune came in about 45 minutes as I was playing a brand new Yamaha keyboard. Our nephew had recently stood down from a stint in the US Marine Corps and had hung himself. To look at him, you would think he had the world to live for. But you never know about people and their appearances. The point is to tell people you are proud to know them and perhaps save a life with little effort.

Lyrics

So Proud

Where’d you go Bobby, we’ve been weeping for you
Why’d you think that our love couldn’t save you?
When they said your name aloud, I was always so proud
So proud of you

Why’d you call Bobby, and didn’t tell me the truth?
Why’d you call Bobby and didn’t say you were through?
In my own life, I rarely smelled a rose,
Cuz I was like you

Why’d you go Bobby, God wasn’t calling for you
Didn’t you know I’d tear my own heart out for you
I’d die to wake you up; You’re my son I was proud
So proud of you

So proud of your family, so proud of your life
I was proud of you
Damn proud of your soldiering son, I was proud of your life
I was proud of you
So proud of you

Where did you go Bobby? We’ve been weeping for you
Where did you go Bobby? God wasn’t callin’ for you
Where did you go Bobby? I was so proud of you

Where did you go?
