Lord I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep inside like my heart's sprung a big break
|
And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful that I may never shake
|
You might say that I was taking it hard oh she wrote me off with a call
|
But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow Lord I may break right down and bawl
|
Now the race is on and here comes pride up the backstretch
|
Heartaches are going to the inside
|
My tears are holding back they're tryin' not to fall
|
My heart's out of the running true love 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 result would be
|
How I lived in fear of waking up each morning and findin' that you're gone from me
|
Cause 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...
|
Yeah the race is on and it looks like heartaches and the winner loses all
