You ask me why I never come around
Been 12 years since I left this town
And if you could see me now
Would you be proud?
Never meant to go so far away
Swept up by the winds of change
But I left this town
Can you be proud?
Don't hate, don't blame, don't be ashamed
Cause one day it'll be too late
Remember when you sang those words to me
Little girl who 'turns around' and leaves
Well she never cried
It was just her time
Don't hate, don't blame, don't be ashamed
Cause one day it'll be too late
Just be proud
Oh say it outloud
Cause one day it'll be too late
