Race Is On, The Sözleri

I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep inside

Like my heart's sprung a big break

And the 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 sorrow

When I may break right down and bawl

(Chorus)

Now, the race is on and here comes pride up the backstretch

Heartaches are a-going to the inside

My tears are holding back

They're tryin' not to fall

My heart's out of the runnin'

True love's scratched for another's sake

The race is on and it looks like heartaches

And the winner loses all!

One day I ventured in love,

Never once suspectin' what the final results would be.

How I lived in fear of waking up each mornin'

And findin' that you're gone from me

There's achin' 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 2nd Place!

(Repeat chorus)
