| [00:00.455] |
Reluctantly crouched at the starting line |
| [00:03.508] |
Engines pumping and thumping in time |
| [00:06.105] |
The green light flashes, the flags go up |
| [00:08.882] |
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup |
| [00:11.363] |
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank |
| [00:14.134] |
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank |
| [00:16.756] |
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns |
| [00:19.419] |
Their prowess is potent and secretly stern |
| [00:22.041] |
As they speed through the finish, the flags go down |
| [00:24.553] |
The fans get up and they get out of town |
| [00:27.295] |
The arena is empty except for one man |
| [00:29.861] |
Still driving and striving as fast as he can |
| [00:32.468] |
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up |
| [00:35.292] |
And long ago somebody left with the cup |
| [00:37.694] |
But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns |
| [00:40.383] |
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns |
| [00:45.107] |
He's going the distance, he's going for speed |
| [00:50.104] |
She's all alone, all alone in her time of need |
| [00:55.408] |
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course |
| [00:58.712] |
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse |
| [01:01.983] |
He's going the distance |
| [01:17.358] |
No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine |
| [01:19.643] |
He's haunted by something he cannot define |
| [01:22.509] |
Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse |
| [01:25.122] |
Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force |
| [01:27.706] |
In his mind, he's still driving, still making the grade |
| [01:30.201] |
She's hoping in time that her memories will fade |
| [01:32.820] |
'Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course |
| [01:35.604] |
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse |
| [01:38.249] |
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up |
| [01:40.899] |
And long ago somebody left with the cup |
| [01:43.360] |
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns |
| [01:46.003] |
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns |
| [01:50.628] |
'Cause he's going the distance, he's going for speed |
| [01:55.811] |
She's all alone, all alone in her time of need |
| [02:01.410] |
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course |
| [02:04.471] |
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse |
| [02:07.107] |
He's racing and pacing and plotting the course |
| [02:09.793] |
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse |
| [02:13.058] |
He's going the distance, he's going for speed |
| [02:18.253] |
He's going the distance |
