The Race Is On
I feel tears wellin' up going deep insideLike my heart's gonna get brokeAnd the stab of loneliness sharp and painfulThat I may never shakeYou might say that I was takin' it hardSince you broke me off with a callBut don't you wager that I'll hide my sorrowWhen i may break right down and bawlNow the race is onAnd here comes pride up the backstretchHeartaches going to the insideMy tears are holding backThey're trying not to fallMy heart's out of the runningTrue love's scratched for another's sakeThe race is on and it looks like heartachesAnd the winner loses allOne day I ventured in love never once suspectingWhat the final result would beNow I live in fear of waking up each morningFinding that she's gone from meThere's aching pain in my heartFor the name of the oneThat I had to replaceSomebody new came up to win herAnd I came out in second placeSongtexteNow the race is onAnd here comes pride up the backstretchHeartaches going to the insideMy tears are holding backThey're trying not to fallMy heart's out of the runningTrue love's scratched for another's sakeThe race is on and it looks like heartachesAnd the winner loses all Aus Songtexte Mania
