I FEEL TEARS WELLIN UP COLD AND DEEP INSIDE, LIKE MY HEARTS 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 WAGGER THAT I'LL HIDE THE SORROW, WHEN I MAY BREAK RIGHT DOWN AND BAWL
WELL, 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 HEARTS OUT OF THE RUNNING, TRUE LOVE'S SCRATCHED FOR ANOTHERS 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
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 HEARTS OUT OF THE RUNNING, TRUE LOVE'S SCRATCHED FOR ANOTHERS SAKE
THE RACE IS ON AND IT LOOKS LIKE HEARTACHES, AND THE WINNER LOSES ALL
