Kyley Styles – Hit The Post (Lyrics)

Well, the coach called me up
Game Seven of the cup
Skating with the big dogs but I was just a pup
I was looking for my chance
Just to make it to the dance
Since I was young I loved to put a stick in my hands

I remember Iginla
Taught me how to win, yeah
Desire is a fire that is flaming up within ya
Had a passion for the game
Knew I always had the aim
And what it takes to make it to the Hockey Hall Of Fame

So I strapped up my skates
Tied my laces real tight
Then I shot it with all of my might…

But I hit the post
I came so close
To achieving the dream I believed in the most
I came so close
But I fell to defeat with my team and the coach
I came so close
Ooh, to achieving the dream I believed in the most…
But I hit the post

Oh, how the crowd would have rose!
God only knows

Well the true and simple fact is
I never missed a practice
Spent all my time in video, dissecting goalie tactics
Spent a lifetime in the minors
With pretty boys and whiners
Hoping I could play amongst the number 99’ers

I owe it to my dad
For the skill I’ve always had
Caught him cryin’ when I hit the iron – man he was so sad
Now the city would insist
That the puck never missed
You know I’d rather win the game than obtain the assist

So when I gave the ‘D’ a fake
And it sent me on a break
It was a blistering wrister I’d take…

But I hit the post
I came so close
To achieving the dream I believed in the most
I came so close
But I fell to defeat with my team and the coach
I came so close
Ooh, to achieving the dream I believed in the most…
But I hit the post

Oh, how the crowd would have rose!
God only knows, god only knows
Oh, how the crowd would have rose!
Oh, God only knows

Well it was 2-2 in overtime
Teddy B was in his prime
Passed it off to Jackson who stopped on a dime

Then he put it in the net
No, I never would have bet
That would be the only game that I’d get…

‘Cause I hit the post
I came so close
To achieving the dream I believed in the most
I came so close
But I fell to defeat with my team and the coach
I came so close
Ooh, to achieving the dream I believed in the most…
But I hit the post

Oh, how the crowd would have rose!
God only knows, god only knows

I came so close
Ooh, to achieving the dream I believed in the most…
But I hit the post
