Relay Race

As fast as you can, don’t look back
They’re all catching in on you
And keep your eyes on the track, try and stay focused
I know since my race is over
One way to get from A to B
You had to stay focused on me
Now I am healed, I never knew it was at the expense of you
Now I hand over the relay race baton to you
I wish I could throw it away
Instead I say to you «run through»
Love will lift you up where you belong
Love will fill your lungs to sing along
Love will lift you up where you belong
Love will give you strength to carry on
Anything I can do, let me know
I’m here, like you were for me
Take a deep breath and I assure you
One lap left to go, you will make it
I never heard you complain, you amazing grace
Never thought you would run this race
I will pay you back someday somehow
I believe things will be alright
Now I hand over the relay race baton to you
I wish I could throw it away
Instead I say to you «run through»
Love will lift you up where you belong
Love will fill your lungs to sing along
Love will lift you up where you belong
Love will give you strength to carry on
