You once ran across the field
It seems not far from here,
You held the ball above your head
And how they all did cheer!

Players in new uniforms
The band would always play,
Nervous tension filled the air
And the game was on it’s way.

Oh how I miss those golden days
The fans all came to town,
The team would give it all they had
The crowd would yell, “Touchdown!”

Homecoming was the best of all
You took me to the dance.
There you held me in your arms,
Beginning our romance

Yes, you once ran across the field
How I wish I still could see...
The day you won the football game
And you won it just for me!
