Intro: Well I'm so sad tonight And the words won't come out right It's been a long day on the track And it's stamina that I lack So won't you run to me tonight Do not pretend that we're just lovers But I'll only ever be A middle distance runner Well my heart is beating hard And the mouth with the shot at the start And my legs tremble from strain But by the finish line I am drained So won't you run to me tonight Do not pretend that we're just lovers But I'll only ever be A middle distance runner x2 Well I'm so proud tonight Of the woman you've become And I'm just too tired to fight So my darling I'll succomb But you'll have to run to me tonight Tonight I will love you forever But I'll only ever be A middle distance runner
