| Started out one way, but turned out the other
|
| And boy it’s confused, I run into your brother
|
| I just pay no mind, not trying to be kind
|
| There’s a mark on my heart, couldn’t say that I love ya
|
| Couldn’t say that I love ya
|
| It started out slowly then burned out and smothered
|
| I know you don’t know that I wanted to love her
|
| I took the advice, afforded the price
|
| And I woke up amused in the arms of another
|
| You know my only regret
|
| Is that we never really met before
|
| Cause you’re lost in the race
|
| This didn’t turn out now the way I’d imagined
|
| They say runner’s up never enjoy the pageant
|
| And all of those lines, I’ve had to decline
|
| Just like your friends, they’re divided and rationed
|
| You know my only request
|
| Is that we really should be together more
|
| Before the end of the ra-ce
|
| Ooh, before the end of the race
|
| Yeah, before the end of the ra-ce
|
| Ooh, before the end of the race
|
| Yeah, before the end of the ra-ce
|
| Ooh, before the end of the race
|
| Let’s make it like we never met before
|
| The end of the ra-ce |
