She lived like she knew nothing lasts

Didn't care to look like anyone else

And she was beautiful, so beautiful

I still hear her laugh like she's here



Shower it down on all the young

It isn't so wrong to have such fun...



Forever angel, I'll be proud to be like you

Be like you (I'll be proud to be like you)



Does the sun shine up at you when you're looking down?

Do you get along with the others around?



It's got to be better than before

You don't need to worry now you're gone...



Forever angel, I'll be proud to be like you

Be like you, just like you...



And when I go to sleep at night

I'll thank you for each blessed thing surrounding me



For every fall I'll ever break

Each moment's breath I wanna taste

Confidence and conscience, decadent extravangance

Never ending providence, for loving when I had the chance



Angel, I hope they love you like we do

Forever angel, I'll be proud to be like you

Forever angel, I'll be proud to be like you

Be like you



I'll be proud to be like you
