I feel tears welling up going deep inside like my heart's gonna get break
And the stab of loneliness, sharp and painful, that I may never shake
You might say that I was taking it hard since she broke 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 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 result would be
How I lived in fear of waking up each morning and finding that you're gone from me
There's ache and pain in my heart for the name of the one that I had to replace
Somebody new came up to win her and I came out in second place
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 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
