Middle Distance Runner

Well I'm so sad tonight

And the words won't come out right

It's been a long day on the track

And its stamina that I lack

So won't you run to me tonight?

Tonight could turn but we're just lovers

But I'll only ever be a middle distance runner

Well my heart is beating hard

And I'm off with a shot at the start

And my legs tremble from strain

But by the finish line I'll drain

So won't you run to me tonight?

Tonight let's not talk about next summer

Cause I'll only ever be a middle distance runner

Well I'm so proud tonight

Of the woman you've become

And I'm just too tired to fight

So my darling, I'll succumb

But you'll have to run to me tonight

Tonight I will love you forever

But I'll only ever be a middle distance runner
