You Made Me Stand Up Straighter

Once I believed that I was strong
And now I find you proved me wrong
You made me stand up straighter now

You came to me when I was down
You picked me up, you turned me 'round
You made me stand up straighter now

Behind me
Behind me
That feeling cut me through
I turned to look at you

I stood alone within the crowd
You picked me out, you made me proud
You made me stand up straighter now

A flag you raised between your hands
A love that hurt but made me stand
You made me stand up straighter now

Behind me
Behind me
That feeling cut me through
I turned to look at you

You made me stand up
You made me stand up straighter
You made me stand up straighter now
