See when I didn't start that was because of my shoes Yeah, the shoes that I wore, they would have gave me a bruise As I follow my dreams, realize all my dreams See when I didn't start that was because of my fear I had another idea, it almost brought me a tear As I follow my dreams, realize all my dreams The sun will rise, even if you don't happen to be there They came from over the world and further To see the race that would change the world, and I stopped See when I didn't start that was because of the mood Is this race worth the pain? As we run through cold rain As I follow my dreams, realize all my dreams See when I didn't start that was because of my shoes No, I've made that excuse, I need another excuse As I follow my dreams, realize all my dreams The sun will rise, even if you don't happen to be there They came from over the world and further To see the race that would change the world, and I stopped If I start running when it doesn't mean nothing And lose you when this could be something now These spikes dig into the tracks, my skull Be calm, so easy now, relax I can't You sap my confidence right out your emerald eyes like seas If I could sail for just a second I'd forfeit easily The sun will rise, even if you don't happen to be there The sun will rise, even if you don't happen to be there Dream slowly, because these things they take time And there's not enough time in any race The minute that I saw your face, I forgot about the race
