Hail Mary

It's 4th and one, clock's tickin' down
Bleachers filled with an on edge town
Bleedin' green and gold, holding onto hope
They take the trophy home for the home team
Number 16 calls for the snap,
Twenty-one's open in the back
With five seconds left, one deep breath
He sends it flying

Making one last hail mary play
Hoping it might change everything
Hearts on the line, faith on the rise
Banking on something extraordinary
With one last hail mary

Nervous, Sweat drippin' like a faucet
He's got forever sitting in his pocket
Rehearsing his lines hundreds of times
Praying to the Lord that he gets this right
Haunted by thoughts of her saying no
Their love is weighed in a little stone
He goes a knee down, she turns around
Taking a shot tonight

Making one last hail mary play
Hoping it might change everything
Hearts on the line, faith on the rise
Banking on something extraordinary
With one last hail mary

Impatiently pacing by the bathroom door
Worried it will be like the times before
His whole world depends on two pink lines
His wife comes in for a warm embrace
Cryin' at what that test didn't say
He makes his plea with the man in the sky
Then tells her let's give it one more try

Making one last hail mary play
Hoping this might change everything
Hearts on the line, faith on the rise
Banking on something extraordinary
With one last hail mary

It's 4th and one, clock tickin' down
Bleachers filled with an on edge town
Bleedin' green and gold, holding onto hope
His boy can take this home for the home team
