Now heaven takes them in
Is that thunder we hear in the heavens
Or the slapping of sticks on the ice
Is that lightning that cuts through the night sky
A goal scored or a toss of the dice.
With dreams of fame and records broken
Blades sing as they fly past the boards
There’s a hat trick a shutout slap shots like cannons
We envy their grace as they seek their rewards
They swagger they joke a team set for battle
How little they know of what fate has in store
They give it their all they are bold they are fearless
But now they are playing no more
They were young and full of life
The game was theirs to win
But the dice were tossed - the Broncos lost
Now Heaven takes them in.
