The Race is On - Charley Crockett

I feel tears welling up cold deep inside my heart’s sprung a big break

And a stab of loneliness sharp as paper all that I can take

You might of thought that I’m taking it hard since you broke it off with a call

Don’t you wager that I’ll hide in sorrow and I might break right down and bawl

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

Heart aches cut through my inside

My tears are holding back trying not to fall

My hearts out of the runnin

Two loves scratching for another safe

Now the race is on and it’s looking like heartache, and the winner gonna lose

it all

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

And I lived in fear waking up each morning finding that your gone from me

There’s an aching pain in my heart for days, the one that I hated to face

Somebody new came up to win her,

And I ended up in second place

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

Heart aches cut through my inside

My tears are holding back trying not to fall

My hearts out of the runnin

True loves scratching for another’s sake

Now the race is on and it’s looking like heartache

And the winner gonna lose it all
