Nowhere Else I’d Rather Be...

There’s nowhere else I'd rather be. . . than where i can hear the water flowing
Or the waves crashing into the rocks
Nowhere else I’d rather be than where i feel the docks rock with the waves beneath my feet
Or walk across the rocks where i can feel it splash on my feet
Nowhere else I’d rather be
Or the calming mist brush against my cheeks
Nowhere else I’d rather be than a beautiful place to clear my head

There’s nowhere else I’d rather be. . . than the place where i hear the ball bounce against the pavement
The beautiful swish of the net as the ball goes through oh so perfect
Nowhere else I’d rather be than on the court with the ball in my hands
I can feel my heart pounding at the beginning of each game
I am one with the ball
Nowhere else I’d rather be than where my hands flow with the grooves in the ball
The court is my freedom
My team is my family
Nowhere else I’d rather be than playing each game like it’s my last
This is not just a game it’s a lifestyle
Nowhere else I’d rather be than where the ball is in my court 

There’s nowhere else I’d rather be than at the starting line lane 2
My hands and feet tremble anxiously
My legs feel weak as I’m just about to start
  The butterflies in my stomach as the gun is about to go off
There’s nowhere else I’d rather be...
the world is my track there’s no telling how far I can go and…
Never underestimate the heart of a champion
