The Race Is On — текст песни (Sawyer Brown)

I feel tears wellin` up cold deep inside
like my heart`s sprung a big break
and a stab of loneliness sharp and painful
that I may never shake

You might say that I was taking it hard
since you wrote me off with a call
But don`t you wager that I`ll hide in sarrow
when I may lay right down and bawl



Chorus

Now the race is on
and here comes pride in the backstreatch
Heartaches goin` to the inside
My tears are holdin` back
They`re tryin` not to fall
My hearts out of the runnin`
True love`s scratched for another`s sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
and the winner looses all


One day I ventured in love
never once suspectin` what the final result would be
and how I lived in fear of waking up each morning
finding that you`re gone from me
There`s ache and pain in my heart
for today was the one that I hated to face
Somebody new came up to win her
and I came out in second place


Chorus

Now the race is on
and here comes pride in the backstreatch
Heartaches goin` to the inside
My tears are holdin` back
They`re tryin` not to fall
My hearts out of the runnin`
True love`s scratched for another`s sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
and the winner looses all
