Started at the line
Shiver creeping down my spine
I felt it in my blood
Felt it like a racer should

It wasn't just a race
A challenge that I had to face
I felt it in my blood
Felt it like a racer should

You might have won
You jumped the gun
And then you made it straight on
Through the finish line
OH

Knelt down at the line
Thought I get ahead this time
whoever's fastest wins
Whoever fastest gets him

Look to my right side
thought I'd seen you fall behind
But way up I could see
You burning dust ahead of me

(Chorus)

I crawl across the line
How could I have lost this time
I felt it in my blood
Felt it like a racer should

I saw it in your eyes
You can't have learned your lies this time
I felt it in my blood
Felt it like a racer should

(Chorus)
