hockey: the musical! original toronto cast recording - to the untrained eye lyrics

[intro]:
and we’re on in five, four, three…

[elizabeth grey]:
good evening, los angeles
i’m elizabeth grey for kxl+tv
today marks the season opener for the united hockey league
and i’m here with tonight’s special story: a look back at the henley cup champs
to the casual hockey fan, this amazing comeback team had no chance whatsoever of becoming the winners they are, and i’m here to tell you why

to the untrained eyе, things are always what they seem
to the untrainеd eye, they were just another team
with players great and players small, not a group to have the wherewithal to win the henley cup or to shake a nation up
to awaken us so we again might know
that when we’re blown apart from ourselves, we can always be redeemed
and in the hearts of ordinary heroes, we return to be the best of what we dream

to the untrained eye, who could possibly foretell
with the untrained eye, who could think they do so well
with hattricks mixed with politics and with violence all around
unspeakable violence
in a tax without defense
in a world that makes no sense
more and more everyday
except for hockey
yes, fortunately, hockey
and its minnesota sons will light the way
is what i say
[interlude]:
that’s right, folks
with johan johanssen in goal, veteran leadership from team captain and minnesota native bubba hamilton, how could they not win?
with such talent as woody johnson, sean knighty, travis smith, and richard d+cklund, how could the turtles not slowly pace their way to victory?
and, of course, the high+profile batman and robin duo, all+stars ravi patel and pavel riccardino, are credited as being the true heroes of their team, leading the minnesota turtles to their first henley cup championship in the team’s twenty+five year history

to the untrained eye, they were just an underdog
to the untrained eye, warriors rising from afar
with courage great while testing fate, who could possibly antic+p+te
that they could somehow win, when our hope had grown so thin
and we’d find ourselves believing once again
that brotherhood of team is all we have to get us through
and in the hearts of ordinary heroes
we return to what we know that we must do

to the untrained eye, who could possibly foresee
with the untrained eye, they’d fulfill their destiny
while spiraling through everything, only one thing stopped their fall:
unbreakable spirit
they somehow got through it
who knew they could do it?
when faith dies everyday, except for hockey
yes, fortunately, hockey
and its minnesota sons will light the way
the world will say
[outro]:
and the world will say it, folks
from minnesota to alabama, from calgary to montreal
turtles fans are hatching like eggs on a galapagos beach
and i speak as a personal witness to their meteoric rise
that’s right, i was a beat reporter then for the minnesota daily star working and living in minneapolis
and i was there in the locker room on the night many say it all began
the night of the turtles’ historic win against sicky svoboda and the boston redcoats
with my own eyes, i saw it happen
and i can definitely vouch for the rare spirit of this team
