For the Pilots
A little Roy-Orbison-mellow, with a Nick-Cave-twist for the U of Portland women’s soccer team as they play in for the National Title against UCLA:
Just running scared, each place we go
So afraid, that Christine might showYeah, running scared, what would we do
If she came back and ran toward you?Just running scared, feeling cold
Running scared, can’t stop that goalJust running scared, afraid to lose
If she came back, which foot would she choose?And then all at once, she was sprinting there
So sure of herself, her head in the airWhile my heart was breaking, which one would it be?
Then she turned round and scored the goal on me
Go Pilots!
