Lyrics - Run For My Life by Foley Ellen

Something's got me working day and night
Something tells me winning won't be easy
This time
I gotta fight
Beauty's always been a friend to me
But
I know she won't stay forever
But that's alright
Keeping my heart above water
Starting to feel that
I'm stronger
Chorus:
I gotta run for my life
It's a marathon for my life
Take a chance, forget the competition
Dancin' till
I drop
It goes on and on.
I can't stop
It's a marathon to the top
Nothing comes from waiting and a wishing
So
I keep running
Running for my life
My lover gives me hope when he is near
But only
I can make the future
Better
Facing my fears
Moving fast so
I can't be shot down
They'll never hit a dancing target
Now
I can see it clear
Keeping my heart above water
Starting to feel that
I'm stronger
Repeat
Chorus
I got my eye on the track
I got my hands in the dirt
I know there's no turning back
I'm gonna push 'til it hurts
I know that my desire
Will take me to the wire
It's not a game
I'm playing
I am here to
WINRepeat
Chorus
Running for my life
I got my eye on the track
I know there's no turning back
I'm gonna push push 'til it hurts
I'm gonna push push 'til it hurts(
It's a marathon)
