Song Lyrics

See when I didn't start that was because of my shoes
Yeah, the shoes that I wore, they would have gave me a bruise
As I follow my dreams, realize all my dreams

See when I didn't start that was because of my fear
I had another idea, it almost brought me a tear
As I follow my dreams, realize all my dreams

The sun will rise, even if you don't happen to be there

They came from over the world and further
To see the race that would change the world, and I stopped

See when I didn't start that was because of the mood
Is this race worth the pain? As we run through cold rain
As I follow my dreams, realize all my dreams

See when I didn't start that was because of my shoes
No, I've made that excuse, I need another excuse
As I follow my dreams, realize all my dreams

The sun will rise, even if you don't happen to be there

They came from over the world and further
To see the race that would change the world, and I stopped

If I start running when it doesn't mean nothing
And lose you when this could be something now
These spikes dig into the tracks, my skull

Be calm, so easy now, relax I can't
You sap my confidence right out your emerald eyes like seas
If I could sail for just a second I'd forfeit easily

The sun will rise, even if you don't happen to be there
The sun will rise, even if you don't happen to be there
Dream slowly, because these things they take time
And there's not enough time in any race

The minute that I saw your face, I forgot about the race

Daniel Blumberg, Robert Guy Stern
