Winner Loses All

For some reason this song popped in my head as I got my beautiful Jesse off to sleep.  I still can picture the video and Mark Miller strutting around the stage while performing it....Very catch tune written by Don Rollins and George Jones and originally performed by Jones.

I loved the 80's

The Race Is On

Performed by Sawyer Brown

I feel tears wellin' up cold deep inside

like my heart's sprung a big break

and a stab of loneliness sharp and painful

that I may never shake

You might say that I was taking it hard

since you wrote me off with a call

But don't you wager that I'll hide in sorrow

when I may lay right down and bawl

Now the race is on

and here comes pride in the backstretch

Heartaches goin' to the inside

My tears are holdin' back

They're tryin' not to fall

My heart's out of the runnin'

True love's scratched for another's sake

The race is on and it looks like heartaches

and the winner loses all

One day I ventured in love

never once suspectin' what the final result would be

and how I lived in fear of waking up each morning

finding that you're gone from me

There's ache and pain in my heart

for today was the one that I hated to face

Somebody new came up the winner

and I came out in second place

Now the race is on

and here comes pride in the backstretch

Heartaches goin' to the inside

My tears are holdin' back

They're tryin' not to fall

My heart's out of the runnin'

True love's scratched for another's sake

The race is on and it looks like heartaches

and the winner loses all
