After a quiet ride with Sidney, we arrive at the practice stadium. I'm sitting on the bleachers and typing my blog. A few moments later, the team gets on the bus to head over to the stadium. I get nervous as Sidney's jersey gets presented to me. I sit in the press room watching the first period of the game. An hour later, the game ends with the team celebrating a big victory. I conduct a lot of interviews and smile at Sidney. I'm back at the airport to catch a flight from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles. At the airport, Sidney and I hug. I'm on the flight and I get sleepy. A few moments later, I hop off the plane at LAX with my jerseys and my suitcase. Travis picks me up. We get back home in time for a date night. Travis takes me to a lounge where if the brave are ready they could sing a song. I get on stage and dedicate my song to Travis.
Our love runs deep like a Chevy
If you fall I'll fall with you baby
'Cause that's the way we like to do it
That's the way we like
You run around open doors like a gentleman
And tell me, "Girl, every day you're my everything."
'Cause that's the way you like to do it
That's the way you like
Just a little West Coast, and a bit of sunshine
Hair blowing in the wind, losing track of time
Just you and I, just you and I
Whoa, whoa
No matter how far we go,
I want the whole world to know
I want you bad, and I won't have it any other way
No matter what the people say,
I know that we'll never break
'Cause our love was made, made in the USA
Made in the USA, yeah
I smile as I sing the next verse.
You're always reading my mind like a letter
When I'm cold, you're there like a sweater
'Cause that's the way we like to do it
That's the way we like
I'll never ever let the world get the best of you
Every night we're apart, I'm still next to you
'Cause that's the way I like to do it
That's the way I like
We touch down on the East Coast
Dinner on the sky rise,
Winter is the best time for walking in the city lights
You and I, you and I
Whoa, whoa
No matter how far we go,
I want the whole world to know
I want you bad, and I won't have it any other way
No matter what the people say,
I know that we'll never break
'Cause our love was made, made in the USA
I belt out the end of the song.
'Cause baby I'll bite the bullet
And take the blows for love
Whoa oh oh, our love was made in the USA
Made in the USA, made in the USA
No matter how far we go,
I want the whole world to know
I want you bad, and I won't have it any other way
No matter what the people say,
I know that we'll never break
'Cause our love was made, made in the USA
Made in the USA, yeah
Made in the U.S.
Made in the U.S.
Made in the U.S.A.
After I sit back down, I noticed Travis on stage. His song is amazing.
I said remember this moment
In the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds in stands went wild
We were the kings and the queens
And they read off our names
The night you danced like you knew
Our lives would never be the same
You held your head like a hero
On a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age
Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
One day, we will be remembered
I sing the next verse.
I said remember this feeling
I pass the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there
On the side-lines wishing for right now
We are the kings and the queens
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we held them up for our town
And the cynics were outraged
Screaming, "This is absurd!"
'Cause for a moment a band of thieves
In ripped-up jeans got to rule the world
Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
I was screaming long live that look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day, we will be remembered
We finish the song together.
Hold on to spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall
Will you take a moment,
Promise me this
That you'll stand by me forever
But if God forbid fate should step in
And force us into a goodbye
If you have children some day
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name
Tell them how the crowds went wild
Tell them how I hope they shine
Long live the walls we crashed through
I had the time of my life, with you
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
And I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Singing, long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
And long, long live that look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day, we will be remembered
