I feel tears welling up cold and deep inside

Like my heart's sprung a big break

And the stab of loneliness sharp and painful

That I may never shake

You might say 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

Well the race is on

And here comes pride up the backstretch

Heartaches a-going to the inside

My tears are holding back

And trying not to fall

My heart's out of the running

True love's scratched for another's sake

The race is on and it looks like heartaches

And the winner loses all

One day I ventured in love never once suspecting

What the final results would be

How I lived in fear of waking up each morning

And finding that you're gone from me

There's aches and pain in my heart

For today was the one that I hated to face

Somebody new came up to win her

I wound up in second place

Well the race is on and here comes pride

Up the backstretch

Heartaches a-going to the inside

My tears are holding back

And trying not to fall

My heart's out of the running

True love's scratched for another's sake

The race is on and it looks like heartaches

And the winner loses all
