The Long Race

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's a hazy winter's day And I'm staring out on the southland In the twilight distance on the bay My mind sees you running through the marshland [Pre-Chorus] All of these years I've been waiting for you Through high tides and the low tides too But if I stop now how could I ever be with you? (Woah) [Chorus] It's a long, long race If I try I will surely finish It's a long, long race (yeah) If I try I will surely win it One day, one night with you [Verse 2] There's a village on the lower eastern shore Where the watermen's boats are anchored And they work so hard all day long Showing me what you want to go after [Pre-Chorus] All of these years I've been pushing so hard Through high tides and the low tides too But if I stop now how could I know what I could do? (Woah) [Chorus] It's a long, long race If I try I will surely finish It's a long, long race (Yes) If I try I will surely win it One day, one night with you [Guitar solo] [Pre-Chorus] All of these years I've been pushing so hard Through high tides and the low tides too But if I stop now how could I know what I could do? (Oh) [Chorus] It's a long, long race If I try I will surely finish It's a long, long race (yeah) If I try I will surely win it It's a long, long race (yes) If I try I will surely finish It's a long, long race (yeah) If I try I will surely win it One day, one night with you
