[length: 06:33]
[00:49.87]Tough of the track,
[00:52.06]With the wind,
[00:53.44]And the rain that’s beating down on your back.
[00:55.66]Your heart’s beating loud
[00:58.21]And goes on getting louder
[00:59.96]And goes on even more till the sound
[01:02.28]Is ringing in your head,
[01:04.87]With every step you tread,
[01:07.25]And every breath you take,
[01:09.73]Determination makes
[01:11.64]You run,
[01:13.50]Never stop,
[01:14.78]Gotta win, gotta run till you drop,
[01:17.14]Keep the pace,
[01:18.59]Hold the race,
[01:19.93]Your mind is getting clearer,
[01:21.58]You’re over halfway there but the miles
[01:23.71]Just never seem to end
[01:26.26]As if you’re in a dream,
[01:28.95]Not getting anywhere.
[01:31.26]It seems so futile.
[01:33.02]Run, on and on,
[01:38.05]Run, on and on,
[01:42.93]The loneliness of the long distance runner.
[03:05.62]I’ve got to keep running the course,
[03:11.14]I’ve got to keep running and win at all costs,
[03:16.10]I’ve got to keep going, be strong,
[03:21.40]Must be so determined and push myself on.
[04:09.01]Run over stiles, across fields,
[04:12.52]Turn to look at who’s on your heels,
[04:15.13]Way ahead of the field,
[04:17.80]The line is getting nearer but do
[04:19.79]You want the glory that goes,
[04:21.77]You reach the final stretch,
[04:24.15]Ideals are just a trace,
[04:26.60]You feel like throwing the race,
[04:29.13]It’s all so futile.
[04:30.94]Run, on and on,
[04:35.96]Run, on and on,
[04:40.99]The loneliness of the long distance runner.
