Song of the Day, 30 August 2011

[Bob Schroeck]

I've never been the one to raise my hand, 
That was not me and now that's who I am 

Because of you I am standing tall, 
My heart is full of endless gratitude, 
You were the one, the one to guide me through, 
now I can see and I believe it's only just beginning 

This what we dream about 
but the only question with me now 
Is do I make you proud 
Stronger than I've ever been now 
Never been afraid of standing out 
But do I make you proud 

I guess I've learned, to question is to grow 
That you still have faith, is all I need to know 
I've learned to love, myself in spite of me 
And I've learned to walk, the road that I believe 

This what we dream about 
but the only question with me now 
Is do I make you proud 
Stronger than I've ever been now 
Never been afraid of standing out 
But do I make you proud 

Everybody needs to rise up 
Everybody needs to be loved, to be loved 

This what we dream about 
but the only question with me now 
Is do I make you proud 
Stronger than I've ever been now 
Never been afraid of standing out 
But do I make you proud

This what we dream about 
but the only question with me now 
Is do I make you proud 
Stronger than I've ever been now 
Never been afraid of standing out 
But do I make you proud

This what we dream about 
but the only question with me now 
Is do I make you proud 
Stronger than I've ever been now 
Never been afraid of standing out 
But do I make you proud

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.

[Star Ranger4]

Heh.... A song for Shinji, certainly. Whether or not it directly applied to a scene Bob was writing yesterday is moot...
Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky?
That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry-
NO QUARTER!!!
-- "No Quarter", by Echo's Children
