Marathon Of Life

Thomas Anders

Lonely distance on the road 
Keep lookin' straight ahead 
Only know I need to go 
Where angels fear to tread 
Some people cross my path awhile 
Sometimes I stand alone 
But in the end it's a one way street 
And every choice is your own 

A race that everybody runs 
You're not the only one 
We all have to try to survive 
A dance with destiny and time 
I won't be left behind 
I've got to run 
In the marathon of life 

Easy losing track of time 
Temptations all around 
Don't take much for anyone 
To try and take you down 
You have to learn to walk away 
You have to know what's true 
If you should aim for something more 
Don't ever stop till you're through 

You've got to run, can't step aside 
You have to stand, stand up and fight 
You got to cross the finishing line 
This is your place, this is your time
