I feel tears wellin' up from 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 since she gave me the final doodbye   But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow when I may break right down and cry   Now the race is on and here comes pride up the backstretch   Heartache is 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   [ sax ]   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 him and I came out in second place   Now the race is on...
