The Race Is On

Don Rollins (OK)

[Verse 1]
Well, I feel tears wellin' up
Goin' deep inside like my heart's sprung a big break
And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful
That I may never shake
Now you might say that I was takin' it hard
Since you wrote me off with a call
And don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow
When 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 holdin' back, they're tryin' not to fall
My heart's out of the runnin'
True love scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
And the winner loses all

[Verse 2]
One day I ventured in love
Never once suspectin' what the final results would be
How I lived in fear of waking up each morning
And findin' that you're gone from me
There's achin' and pain in my heart
For today is the one that I hated to face
Somebody new came up to win him
And I came out in second place

[Chorus]
Now the race is on
And here comes pride up the back stretch
Heartaches are going to the inside
My tears are holdin' back, they're tryin' not to fall
My heart's out of the runnin'
True love scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
And the winner loses all
