Race Is On Lyrics

Race Is On lyrics

[ Orlo & Marvis Thompson ]



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 when 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



[ guitar - steel ]



One day I ventured in love never once suspecting what the final result would
be



How I lived in fear of waking up each morning and 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...
