When you need a lift remember life's a gift to unwrapĮvery being worthy of love no matter their pathĮverything's better when you're by my side When you need it most it will pull you back

Lay it all out in the game chasing buddy down the rinkĪll forgiven when the whistle blew, go buy him a drink What he learned in hockey taught him most about life Gave up on things he wanted so they could haveįor him there was no place like being on the ice One good suit, dreams aside, he was proudest as a dad Met her on the dance floor, whisked each other away The spirit of a kid in his sparkling eyes and crinkled browġ948 Toronto-bound a place for youth to thriveĭidn't know a thing about big cities, it's a wonder he survivedįrom horse and wagon transportation to the TTCĮarned one dollar an hour, everything had a fee Glad he grew up when he did, things are different now One drunken Halloween his folks nearly had him caught Watched where he'd hide the moonshine in old bottles of pop With the island dry they'd stalk the bootlegger to his spot The nuns had one hell of a time with small town rivalriesīombardiers target practice had boys plan for these encountersĬlimb up on rooves, drop blocks of snow and sod at out-of-towners Wartime saw the men away, no one to keep the peace Wax balls from burning candles to throw at people's heads Sneaking sips of wine amidst breaking of bread Where psalms were songs of blessed time to have a lark Or take a three, you'll always be apart of the teamįor a teenage altar boy church was an amusement park Inspiration, courageous enough to take a leap I know the feeling B, in the end we praying that one day these words reach spiritually How you've grown, to someone We're proud to know, your wings spread just like an eagle It's easy to see you, we remember how easy it was for you when you finally went to dribble I look up to that, I was hoping that we could write a track Or, watching a shower of falling lights and MeteorsĪt leading groups of people who normally wouldn't cross a path The sun shine, like your smile, it took the pain awayīrighten up like the night sky, when the stars align We’ll dream about the light we cannot seeĪll about the game since before age three

Like a life complete, no soul can cheat, the ocean calls the water back The waves that crash like fire and ash, a spark and then it's goneīuilding over time in waters wide, played out like a songĪs the crest reaches it's peak, the curl in light refracts Listen close to the music and the noise, the sorrows and the joys, it's all sound

Roots show in the stories of the ones who came before Not a fight to survive, it thrives in quiet persistenceīending where it needs to, in perpetual motionĪ journey every river takes to make it down to the ocean Listen close to wings that brought me back to the middle where the truth is all laid downĪ river doesn't struggle, it takes the path of least resistance Roots grow when given all they need to hold the earth

Will bring you where you need and teach you how to let go of control Of ancient tides, eternal collide, wild and rawĪll of her expressions, like a silent undertow Bring me to the water, let my body feel the draw
