21 To 17

21 To 17

(Album: Be Good At It - 1997)

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 about 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 got to do

She said something about some school down south
Where she was going to go next fall
14 to 10, 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 about 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

And she turned away, then she stopped to say
We really hoped I understood
I nodded my head as the loudspeaker said
The kick is up, it's good

I waited til she walked 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 ninety yard gain

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
And time ran out on me
