We Are Lovat
In fifty three they hit the heights
The famous trophy was in their sights
They made the journey of sixty miles
Down to the Fort to meet the mighty Kyles
And on that day Lovat made the grade
With grit and passion and fire they played
In blood and sweat they wrote their names
They were the heroes who lit the flame
Chorus
We are Lovat
On the shoulders of giants we stand
We are Lovat
Our name is legend throughout the land
With more than sixty years gone by
A second chance for that cup drew nigh
On the turf of Mossfield the task was plain
The mighty Kyles to face again
The game began at a frantic pace
And right away Kyles were on our case
Then Lovat countered and the die was cast
This would be a battle to the last
The blues attacked with speed and skill
But Lovat followed their defensive drill
And though the shots came hard and fast
The keeper’s performance was a masterclass
Time and again he made the saves
To break Kyles hearts on that famous day
Then from a half chance in our time of need
Our own full forward put us in the lead
Chorus
After the break as you’d expect
Kyles came back fearsome and direct
And then the goal that shook us to the core
To put the game back to level score
And so the battle carried on and on
Though we all knew it was far from done
But then a goal from that self-same man
Put joy in the heart of every Lovat Fan
As Lovat held on for a famous win
Disheartened Kyles took it on the chin
And for this team who lost so well
History repeats itself
And thus the heroes of twenty fifteen
Closed the gap on all the years between
Their names will live for all to see
Up there with the heroes of fifty three
Chorus
