Brown Sawyer - The Race Is On lyrics

rate me

I feel tears welling up cold and deep inside

Like my heart's got a big break

And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful

That I may never shake

You might think I'm taking it hard

Since she broke me off with a call

But don't wager that I'll hide the sorrow

I may break right down and bawl

Chorus

Now the race is on and here comes pride up the back stretch

Heartaches are going to the inside

My tears are holding back, trying not to fall

My heart's out of the running

True love's 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 forgetting

What the final result would be

Now I live in fear of waking up each morning

And finding that you're gone from me

There's an aching pain in my heart for the name

Of the one that I hated to face

Someone else came out to win her

And I came out in second place
