1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 When we lost at home to Inter Milan
The door was closed, I could see
But I hadn’t allowed for the wonder man
The incredible Thierry Henry

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Come the return at their home ground
Thierry took command
He proved himself the best around
The best from any land

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 As fast as a world-class sprinter
He moved like a butterfly
Their defence was forced to splinter
In the twinkling of an eye

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Two great goals from his magic feet
And passes, two, three, four
For Inter, it was a tragic defeat
For Arsenal a re-opened door

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Now I know, when I think we can’t
Someone has the power, someone can
When we’ve almost given up on what we want
Cometh the hour, cometh the man
