"Rat Race" lyrics

"Rat Race"

Just got through talking on the telephone
I'm in my hotel room and you at home
In a week or so, it turns around
I'll be back at home, you're out of town

Sometimes I feel like we should run away
Keep on running in this rat race
Keep on running in this rat race

You got your thing, I got mine
Get to see each other sometime
Then the world, it gets a better place
We get to love each other face to face

A little loving goes a long way
When we're running in a rat race
I keep on running in this rat race
I can't see you, oh, how I need you
I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you

That's what I do for one look in your eyes
You know I'd even run a hundred miles
It's hard to keep my feet upon the ground
Just waiting for that time to come around

There's only so much that I wanna say
'Bout this running in a rat race
We keep on running in a rat race
I can't see you, oh, how I need you
I need you, I need you
I need you, yeah, oh
