[00:00]Reluctantly crouched at the starting line
[00:02]Engines pumping and thumping in time
[00:06]The green light flashes, the flags go up,
[00:08]Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup
[00:11]They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank
[00:13]Fuel burning fast on an empty tank
[00:16]Reckless and wild they pour through the turns
[00:18]Their prowess is potent and secretly stern
[00:21]They speed through the finish, the flags go down,
[00:24]The fans get up and they get out of town
[00:27]The arena is empty except for one man
[00:29]Still driving and striving as fast as he can
[00:32]The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
[00:34]And long ago somebody left with the cup
[00:37]But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns
[00:39]And thinking of someone for whom he still burns
[00:44]He's going the distance
[00:47]He's going for speed
[00:49]She's all alone (all alone)
[00:51]All alone in her time of need
[00:54]Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
[00:58]He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
[01:01]He's going the distance
[01:05]
[01:16]No trophy no flowers no flash bulbs no line
[01:19]He's haunted by something he can not define
[01:21]Bowel shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse
[01:24]Assail him, impale him with monster truck force
[01:26]In his mind he's still driving still making the grades
[01:29]She's hoping in time that her memories will fade
[01:32]Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
[01:35]He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
[02:23]
[01:37]The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
[01:40]And long ago somebody left with the cup
[01:42]But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns
[01:45]And thinking of someone for whom he still burns
[01:50]He's going the distance
[01:52]He's going for speed
[01:55]She's all alone (all alone)
[01:57]All alone in her time of need
[02:00]Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
[02:04]He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
[02:06]He's racing and pacing and plotting the course
[02:09]He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
[02:12]He's going the distance
[02:15]He's going for speed
[02:17]He's going the distance
