If You Build It - Air Traffic Controller

If you build it, they will come

Can you remember where that line came from

It was a movie

As I recall it had a baseball theme

Was it Bull Durham, oh not that old

You know I think that it had James Earl Jones

And Kevin Costner, though it wasn’t For The Love of The Game

My brother always says it and he gets this crazy look in his eye

But I don’t want to get involved;

brother I’m just tryin' to get by

But oh he’s so convincing, what could I be missing this time

His mind is overheating and he just keeps repeating his line

If you build it, they will come

Think I remember where that line came from

It was a movie, one that keeps you guessing til the end

Guy has a vision, an awesome one

It happened when the workaday was done

Lit up like heaven

Baseball diamond on his farm

My brother throws a party every Wednesday at the local town bar

And if you got a song to sing then should probably bring your guitar

Cause when everyone is gathered, no where else that they’d rather be

That’s when he winks at me and smiles like he did the night we saw that movie

Yeah if you build it, they will come

Yes I remember where that line came from

It was a movie, one that everyone out there has seen

And when the voices, call out to you

Maybe it’s something that you could pursue

Cause we’re all living, yes we are living in this field
