Paroles de Taking The Inside Rail

Did you ever have a dream that you were running? Where the ground is like a wheel beneath your feet? And no matter how you tried you just weren't moving In whatever race you're running you'd be beat? In whatever race you're running you'd be beat? They tell me I'm a loser I'm a hopeless freak I look kind of funny and my little legs are weak The wrong side of the blanket The wrong side of the track I hear the accusations when they talk behind my back All the money is on the favorite I don't get a second glance I'm not even in the running here with an outside chance And then I see your lovely face Stand up and I'm back in the race Nothing is going to stop me I wasn't born to fail I'm taking the inside rail All the odds against me In the two horse race If I stand up they push me back down flat on my face They tell me it's impossible It's just the way I'm bred And get these crazy notions right out of my head All the money's on the favorite I don't get a second glance I'm not even in the running here with an outside chance And then I see your lovely face Pay no attention to the odds I face I'm running from the outside I wasn't born to fail I'm taking the inside rail Last night I had a different dream I chased the moon's reflection in a running stream While all the stars in heaven Were standing there so still I just keep on running and I'm half way up the hill I see the crowd and the finish line I see the day when the prize is mine It maybe crazy the dream that I swear The clouds are all behind me The wind's in my hair And then I see your lovely face Pay no attention to the odds I face I'm running from the outside I wasn't born to fail I'm taking the inside rail
