Sawyer Brown - The Race Is On lyrics

I feel tears wellin' up cold deep inside Like my heart's sprung a big break And a stab of lonliness, sharp and painful That I may never shake Now, 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 lay right down and bawl Now the race is on And here comes Pride in the backstretch Heartache's goin' to the inside My tears are holdin' 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 Heartache's And the winner loses all One day I ventured in love Never once suspectin' what the final result would be And how I lived in fear of wakin' up each morning Findin' that you're gone from me There's ache 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 second place Now the race is on And here comes Pride in the backstretch Heartache's goin' to the inside My tears are holdin' 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 Heartache's And the winner loses all
