I’ve been in a rush
I’ve been on a ride
Sometimes I need a push
To come back from behind
Finally I’m following
This racing heart
And I will love you with a running start
I will love you with a running start
I’ve been slow to trust
I’ve been quick to bail
I used to keep my distance
Complain to no avail
Now I’ll show you
All the good I pulled apart
And I will love you with a running start
I will love you with a running start
I have given up too early
I’ve been late to rise
I have thought myself unworthy
Of the finer things in life
But the look you give me
Is a priceless work of art
And I will love you with a running start
I will love you with a running start
I’ve been alone, not quite alive
I’ve let chances go right by
But with you, I am compelled
And I know it well
I will love you
I will love you
I will love you with a running start
I will love you with a running start
