The Race Is On

[00:00.42] I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep inside
[00:03.98] Like my heart's sprung a big break
[00:06.98] And the stab of loneliness, sharp and painful
[00:10.06] That I may never shake
[00:12.83] Now you might say that I was taking it hard
[00:15.33] Since you wrote me off with a call
[00:18.05] But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow
[00:20.77] When I may break right down and bawl
[00:24.55] Now the race is on and here comes pride up the backstretch
[00:28.89] Heartaches are going to the inside
[00:31.78] My tears are holding back
[00:34.33] They're trying not to fall
[00:36.96] My heart's out of the running
[00:39.00] True love's scratched for another's sake
[00:41.77] The race is on and it looks like heartaches
[00:45.18] And the winner loses all
[00:49.80]
[01:12.41] One day, I had ventured in love, never once suspecting
[01:16.17] What the final results would be
[01:18.91] How I lived in fear of waking up each morning
[01:21.85] And finding that you'd gone from me
[01:24.74] There's aching and pain in my heart
[01:26.65] For the day was the one that I hated to face
[01:29.97] Somebody new came up to win her
[01:32.87] And I came out in second place
[01:36.44] Now the race is on and here comes pride up the backstretch
[01:40.87] Heartaches are going to the inside
[01:43.67] My tears are holding back
[01:46.28] They're trying not to fall
[01:48.73] My heart's out of the running
[01:50.93] True love's scratched for another's sake
[01:53.78] The race is on and it looks like heartaches
[01:57.06] And the winner loses all
[01:59.80]
