Between The Goalposts Under The Stars
Composição: Flavio Ricardo Melazzo.Verse 1
Tall for his age, standing proud
Olive skin glowing under stadium lights
Loose clothes, headphones, rhythm loud
Dreams bigger than the city at night
Joystick days, late-night beats
Heart so soft, but his mind so strong
He looks at me, smiles and repeats
“Grandpa, I love you” — that’s my favorite song
Pre-Chorus
Raised with respect, taught to stand tall
Honor the past, but answer the call
Far from the land where his blood was born
Still carries Brazil in everything he’s worn
Chorus
Between the posts, Lorenzo flies so free
A guardian of hope, just like family
Hands to the sky, eyes on the ball
A boy with faith, he won’t ever fall
Between the posts and the stars above
That’s where he stands, with courage and love
Verse 2
Only child, but never alone
Angels watching every save
Patriot heart, even far from home
Green and yellow in the flag he waves
He tells me sometimes, quiet and slow
“I wish I could see Brazil someday”
It breaks my heart, but deep down I know
He’s safe where he is, and that’s okay
Pre-Chorus 2
His father taught him right from wrong
Respect the elders, be proud, be strong
His mother’s prayers every night
Guide his steps and give him light
Chorus
Between the posts, Lorenzo flies so free
A guardian of hope, just like family
Hands to the sky, eyes on the ball
A boy with faith, he won’t ever fall
Between the posts and the stars above
That’s where he stands, with courage and love
Bridge
Mormon faith, Christian soul
Living by truth and self-control
I cross the borders when I can
Just to hold him, man to man
One day the road will open wide
And he’ll walk the land on the other side
Till then I pray, I wait, I know
God’s got my boy wherever he goes
Final Chorus
Between the posts, destiny calls
From Utah fields to distant walls
A keeper of dreams, a keeper of light
Lorenzo shines in every fight
Between the posts and the stars above
That’s my legacy… that’s my love
Outro
Yeah…
From a grandfather’s heart
To Lorenzo’s soul
