The Race Is On

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
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 I was taking it hard Oh, she wrote me off with a call But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow When I may break right down and bawl. Well, the race is on And here comes pride up the backstretch Heartaches a-going to the inside My tears are holding back And tryin' not to fall My heart's out of the running 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 finding that you're gone from me. There's aches and pain in my heart For today was the one that I hated to face Somebody new came up to win her I wound up in second place. Well, the race is on and here comes pride Up the backstretch Heartaches a-going to the inside My tears are holding back And tryin' not to fall My heart's out of the running True love's scratched for another's sake The race is on and it looks like heartaches And the winner loses all
