Rooting For You Lyrics
You made the team in seventh grade
Sat on the side yelling your name
The coach wanted you starting every game
You bought yourself a pair of shoes
To match the guys you looked up to
You said that you would be like them some day
And i was rooting for you
Waiting in the hall outside the locker room
I was rooting for you back then
And i still am
You made new friends on summer break
Hung out behind the circle k
Your shoes sat on the shelf til august came
The first game of the season you were late, had trouble keeping up
You sat it out until the buzzer rang
But i was rooting for you
Sitting in the bleachers hoping you’d pull through
I was rooting for you back then
And i still am
We used to talk about
Where we would be by now
But your jersey & your shoes, you threw away
I know we don’t talk right now
But i still think about
How i was rooting for you
Knew you could do anything you wanted to
I was rooting for you back then
And i still am
And i still am
