The Night the Goalposts Came Down Lyrics by Brewster Durbin

Rookie

2024

[Verse 1]
Let the delta carry me out
When it’s time to head back to Maker above
When they finally set me free, I’m so glad it was you who was on my team
A feeling far too great to pass for love
When my name gets called: a trumpeting sound
It’s hard knowing you can’t always be there for me
I’d make the coast my grave but it’s losing football fields each day
Is it really so bad to become nothing?
[Chorus]
Cause I believe in a love that’s waiting for me
And I believe that the fear will one day leave from my mind
If I could see all the love that’s waiting for me
Would it help to make sense of this life?
[Verse 2]
That night the goalposts came crumbling down
He made the great advance, Hail Mary to the end zone
You threw the ball for me but it’s always just beyond my reach
Arms still outstretched when the sands of time blow
Let the gameplan play itself out
Long drives to the city in search of lost time
They say it’s no place to be but it sure does feel like home to me
Louisiana is where I’ll live and die
[Chorus]
Cause I believe in a love that’s waiting for me
To have that faith it takes strength when you’re going in blind
So I believe that’s it love that’s waiting for me
Because what else is there when you die?
[Outro]
Let the delta carry me out
Let the delta carry me out
Let the delta carry me out
Let the delta carry me out
