If there's a goal that everyone remembers |
|
It was back in old seventy two |
|
We all squeezed the stick and we all pulled the trigger |
|
And all I remember is sitting beside you |
|
You said you didn't give a fuck about hockey |
|
And I never saw someone say that before |
|
You held my hand and we walked home the long way |
|
You were loosening my grip on Bobby Orr |
|
Isn't it amazing anything's accomplished |
|
When the little sensation gets in your way |
|
Not one ambition whispering over your shoulder |
|
Isn't it amazing you can do anything |
|
We hung out together every single moment |
|
'Cause that's what we thought married people do |
|
Complete with the grip of artificial chaos |
|
And believing in the country of me and you |
|
Crisis of faith and crisis in the Kremlin |
|
And, yeah, we'd heard all that before |
|
It's wintertime, the house is solitude with options |
|
And loosening the grip on a fake cold war |
|
Isn't it amazing what you can accomplish |
|
When you don't let the nation get in your way |
|
And not one ambition whispering over your shoulder |
|
Isn't it amazing you can do anything |
|
Next to your comrades in the National Fitness Program |
|
Caught in some eternal flexed arm hang |
|
Dropping to the mat in a fit of laughter |
|
Showed no patience, tolerance or restraint |
|
Fireworks exploding in the distance |
|
Temporary towers soar |
|
Fireworks emulating heaven |
|
Till there are no stars any more |
|
Fireworks aiming straight at heaven |
|
Temporary towers soar |
|
Till there are no stars shining up in heaven |
|
Till there are no stars any more |
|
Isn't it amazing what you can accomplish |
|
When the little sensation gets in your way |
|
No ambition whispering over your shoulder |
|
Isn't it amazing what you can accomplish |
|
This one thing probably never goes away |
|
I think this one thing is always supposed to stay |
|
This one thing doesn't have to go away |
