I'm not the kind that walks away But in my mind I knew this day was done too soon The spark inside, the lights gone dark Shimmered and I realise my heart is cold as the moon
It's not the first, it's not the last time That my heart got broken My love got turned around Gotta lift myself to higher ground
After the race is run I'll be gone, I'll be gone When all's been said and done I'll be gone, I'll be gone
After the race is run I'll be gone, I'll be gone When all's been said and done I'll be gone, I'll be gone
We don't have time to contemplate Just know that I'm not twisting fate by leaving so soon The spark inside, the lights gone dark Shimmered and I realise my heart is cold as the moon
It's not the first, it's not the last time That my heart got broken My love got turned around Gotta lift myself to higher ground
After the race is run I'll be gone, I'll be gone When all's been said and done I'll be gone, I'll be gone
Step by step and day by day I'm thinking 'bout who will win the race Don't hold your breath, don't waste your time I won't be waiting at the finish line
Gotta lift myself to higher ground
After the race is run I'll be gone, I'll be gone When all's been said and done I'll be gone, I'll be gone
After the race is run I'll be gone, I'll be gone When all's been said and done I'll be gone, I'll be gone
