The Race Is On

I came out in second place
Thinking that you gone from me
The race is on and it looks like heartaches

Now the race is on

True love's scratched for another's sake
Well the race is on
Heartaches goin' to the inside
My tears are holdin' back, they're tryin' not to fall
My hearts out of the runnin'
True love's scratched for another's sake

When I may lay right down and bawl
But don't you wager that I'll hide in sorrow

Heartaches goin' to the inside

There's ache and pain in my heart
One day I'd ventured in love
For today was the one that I hated to face
And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful
And how I lived in fear of waking up each morning
And the winner loses all
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
Since you wrote me off with a call

Never once suspectin' what the final result would be
You might say that I was taking it hard
My hearts out of the runnin'
Somebody new came up to win her
And here comes pride in the backstretch
My tears are holdin' back, they're tryin' not to fall
That I may never shake
And here comes pride in the backstretch
