The Blind Man In The Bleachers Lyrics

He's just the blind man in the bleachers

To the local home town fans

And he sits beneath the speakers

Way back in the stands

And he listens to the play by play

He's just waiting for one name

He wants to hear his son get in the game

But the boys not just a hero

He's strictly second team

Tho he runs each night for touchdowns

In his fathers sweetest dreams

He's gonna be a star some day

Tho you might never tell

But the blind man in the bleachers knows he will

And the last game of the season is a Friday night at home

And no one knows the reason but the blind man didn't come

And his boy looks kinda nervous

Sometimes turns around and stares

Just as tho he sees the old man sittin there

The local boys are tryin but they slowly lose their will

Another players down and now

He's carried from the field

At halftime in the locker roomKenny Starr - The Blind Man In The Bleachers - http://motolyrics.com/kenny-starr/the-blind-man-in-the-bleachers-lyrics.html

The kid goes off alone

And no one sees him talkin on the phone

The games already started

When he gets back to the team

And half the crowd can hear his coach yell

Where the hell you been?

Just gettin ready for the second half,

Is all hell say

Cause now you're gonna let me in to play.

Without another word, he turns and runs into the game

And through the silence on the field

Loudspeakers call his name

It'll make the local papers

How the team came from behind

When they saw him playin his heart to win

And when the game was over

The coach asked him to tell

What was it he was thinkin of

That made him play so well

You knew my dad was blind, he said

Tonight he passed away

It's the first time that my fathers seen me play
