The Bright LIghts
It was a sunny day on that field
The day everything changed
For me it was an ordinary baseball game
But I didn’t know there were scouts watching me
I dreamed of the bright lights
I watch as the pitcher winds up the throw
I see the ball coming in
I swing and high, high it goes to the outfield
I dreamed of being a “Big Leaguer”
I dreamed of bright lights
As I walk to the mound, I feel the nice soft dirt under my feet
I wind up, throwing the pitch for the third strike
I see the catcher catch the ball as a strike
I see the whole team rushing me
I dreamed of being under the bright lights
