For weeks and weeks I’ve been trying not to speak There has been a big secret And I’ve been very determined to keep it I’ve been planning a trip to LA Looking forward to an amazing getaway Was going to surprise my one brother With his girlfriend and my mother Well I guess the joke is on me Because he won’t be there from what I can see He’s been called up to the AHL It’s finally his shot at the next level Of course I’m sad he won’t be there on my arrival After my long 16 hour flight and travel But I’m beyond excited for this chance For his hockey career to advance His road to success has not been trouble-free This I can guarantee But my brother is one tough cookie I’m sure everyone will agree Nick, You’ve shown such great passion, focus and determination This opportunity is the exact confirmation You truly deserve this shot Get out there and show everyone what you got! Love you around the world and back again!
