Sea Wolf – Middle Distance Runner
Well I’m so sad tonight,
And the words won’t come out right.
And it’s been a long day on the track;
And it’s stamina that I lack.
So won’t you run to me tonight?
Tonight we could pretend 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 am drained.
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.
