Zero

The game was tied at 7 all

She said, let's take a walk

We found a place behind the stands

She said, we need to talk

She went on and on 'bout this town being small

And how she needed other things

Just about when they made it 7 to 10

She gave me back my ring

The cheers went up

As she broke down

And said, it isn't you

I think you know how I really feel

But there's things that I've gotta do

She said something about some school down South

Where she was gonna go next fall

Fourteen to ten, we were winning again

While I was losing it all

She looked at me with tear-filled eyes

And said, I hope you realize

That this is not the way that I

Meant for it to end

And suddenly the crowd broke through

Yelling, we've got spirit, how 'bout you

And all that I could think to do

Was simply join in

She said, It's best if we do this now

And it began to rain

I wasn't sure if I was shaking

From the cold or the pain

She turned away then she stopped to say

She really hoped I understood

I nodded my head as the loudspeaker said

The kick is up, it's good

I waited til she'd walk back in

To turn my back into the wind

Before I let the tears begin

To fall with the rain

I made it back in time to see

Jason throw to Bobby Lee

And make homecoming history

With a 90 yard gain

Now there's a banner hanging down

From the stadium wall

Reminding everybody of

The year we won it all

And though I was there at every game I swear

Only one remains a memory

It was 21 to 17

When time ran out on me

21 to 17

When time ran out on me
