I see you on that field
Oh, I love to watch you play
The sport you hold so dear
The one that's keeping me away

I know that it's your passion
I know it is your soul
But I need to have you close
You're the one I want to hold

If only football wasn't
Such a big part of your time
Than maybe I could finally
Say that you are mine.

But then you wouldn't be the man
That I have come to love
So, I guess I would change nothing
When push comes to shove

Football is your passion
I understand that's true
I know you love your sport
But Baby, I love you
