i was there

where were you at 5 am

waking up to catch a dream

in the dark

in the cold

cracking up the car heat

where were you when those warm winds blew

across that prairie sky

stick on the pond

and blades digging in the ice

ohh i was there

i was scoring on the wrap around

i was there

i was knocking you to the ground

i was your get back up

gotta give er gotta get it er done

i was a locker room prayer

when you couldn't find the words

i was in your heart

ya all over the world that's were hockey starts

you show up

game on like a breath on the winter air

i was there

where were you when all those driveway dreams finally started coming true

people all around the world are watching from there living rooms

and where were you at center ice

game time goal on your mind

ya a moment like that with everything on the line

oh i was there

i was blocking that slap shot down

i was there

i was knocking you to the ground

i was your get back up

gotta give er gotta get er done

oh i was a locker room prayer

when you couldn't find the words

i was in your heart

ya all over the world that's were hockey starts

you show up

game on like a breath on the winter air

i was there

with pride

and community

i was there at the rink and ill always be

so drop the puck boys and let 'em play

this is our time

this is our game

i was there when there was nobody else around

i was there i was that voice out in the crowd

shouting out

get back up

gotta give er gotta get er done

oh i was a locker room prayer

when you couldn't find the words

i was in your heart

ya all over the world that's were hockey starts

you show up

game on like a breath on the winter air

i was there

i was there

i was there

i was there

i was there
