My underdog high school football team Finally made it to the state They'd already won the game in a sudden d**h play By the time I made it to the gate And on the day to be my brother's best man And stand right by his side My old coupe de ville wasn't feelin' too well I pulled up as the were throwin' the rice (but) I was there when you walked by And you looked my way I was there saw the sparks fly I swear I even heard the music play I was there when the full moon Fit the night like a glove I was there when you fell in love I always seem to be just a little too late And one or two steps behind Seems the main event always came and went I'd just miss it in the nick of time But for once in my life I was the man on the scene An eye witness all the way No one had to fill me in I didn't hear it second hand I'm the only guy that get's to say Chorus Lucky me I was there when we fell in love
