It's not how fast you can go The force goes into the flow If you pick up the beat You can forget about the heat More than just survival More than just a flash More than just a dotted line More than just a dash
It's test of ultimate will The heartbreak climb uphill Got to pick up the pace If you want to stay in the race More than blind ambition More than simple greed More than a finish line Must feed this burning need- In the long run...
From first to last The peak is never passed Something always fires the light That gets in your eyes One moment's high And glory rolls on by Like a streak of lightning That flashes and fades In the summer sky
Your meters may overload You can rest at the side of the road You can miss a stride But nobody gets a free ride More than high performance More than just a spark More than just the bottom line Or a lucky shot in the dark- In the long run...
You can do a lot in a lifetime If you don't burn out too fast You can make the most of the distance First you need endurance- First you've got to last...
