Wide Right Lyrics

Through the helmet's view, I see the gleam

Of goals I've chased and those unseen

With shaky hands and a hopeful soul

Wide right's a shadow that takes its toll

Before I step, I listen to my heart

In this game, emotions play the biggest part

Wide right, oh wide right

The story of a heart that's held so tight

Wide right, oh wide right

Through the misses, I'll keep reaching for new heights

And here I stand, with the field ahead

Ready to kick, but there's a chill of dread

With every step, the tension grows

Memories of the past, where the whistle blows

I've been in this spot, heard the crowd's sudden shift

In a game of inches, where moments drift

So take a breath, count it down from three

Focus on the goal, where I want to be

The laces spin, the world feels tight

But here I go, hoping I'll set it right

The crowd holds its breath, the lights are aglow

The pressure's high but my heart's sinking low

That ball flies right but not where it should go

Wide right again, ain't the first time I know

Wide right, oh wide right

Under these stars, nothing feels quite right

Wide right, oh wide right

But I'll keep kicking till the end of the night

The field's so vast, it's like a distant shore

I line it up, just like the times before

But when it counts, I'm left wanting more

Wide right again, my heart hits the floor

Wide right, oh wide right

In this game, I'm fighting for the light

Wide right, oh wide right

Still, I'll keep on kicking with all my might

Underneath the stadium lights, shadows grow

I've been here before, but the clock runs slow

The coach's eyes, the fans' weary sighs

But I'll face the wind, no matter where it blows

Wide right, oh wide right

Aiming for the goal, against the fading light

Wide right, oh wide right

But with every miss, I'll get back up and fight

So I gather my faith at the whistle's call

With head held high, I'll give it my all

The roar of the crowd, feels like a cold fall

Wide right again, but I'll never stall

Wide right, oh wide right

I'm on this journey, 'neath the skies so bright

Wide right, oh wide right

Through the highs and lows, I'll grasp for new highs
