Running Race

by Catherine Papworth

10/11/10

Are you scared little boy?

standing there at the start

afraid that the gun will deploy

you sit in your lonely heart

she could be your savior

she could be your friend

carry your heart to enable you

till you reach your bitter end

but love is not a running race

take it at your own pace

love is not a running race

not this love

some of us run to the fire

but burn out before it's done

some raise their fists like a lion

and hope their cowardly heart has won

you keep your love at a distance

then she walked into your view

you start to form the resistance

but she saw inside of you

and said,

love is not a running race

take it at your own pace

love is not a running race

take it at your own pace

love is not a running race

not this love

not this love

not this love

not this love

are you afraid you won't need her?

afraid you can't keep her

all you gotta do is believe her

when she says,

that love is not a running race

take it at your own pace

love is not a running race

take it at your own pace

love is not a running race

take it at your own pace

love is not a running race

not this love

not this love

not this love

not this love

love is not a running race

take it at your own pace

love is not a running race

not this love.
