The Race |
Around the world he traveled |
To start the games that he dreamed of, dreamed of His biggest triumph lingers |
Will only slip through his fingers |
He wants to feel the crowd |
And be a winner |
Each time he takes the step |
His reason now for living |
Praying silently |
He’s running there |
Running faster |
To hear the sheers |
The crowd moves closer |
He’s getting near |
A smile displays his victory |
It’s only for a moment, a moment |
Towards the sky in wonder |
His mind begins to wander |
The cheers are getting near |
His name he hears |
But he will never fall |
This is really living |
Praying silently |
He’s getting near |
His time is here |
The crowd gets closer |
The end is near |
From childhood to manhood |
He didn’t seem to care |
He had no time for people |
He had no time to share |
The biggest race of all |
He wants to feel the crowd |
And be a winner |
Each time he takes a step |
His reason is now for living |
Praying silently |
He’s running here |
Running faster |
To hear the cheers |
The crowd moves closer |
He’s getting near |
He’s almost here |
Getting faster |
His time is here |
The crowds move closer |
The end is here |
