[00:00.00] Taking The Inside Rail -Mark Isham /Sting
[00:03.10] Written by :Mark Isham /Sting
[00:06.39] Did you ever have a dream that you were running
[00:10.847] Where the ground is like a wheel beneath your feet
[00:15.972] And no matter how you tried you just weren't moving
[00:20.796] In whatever race you're running you'd be beat
[00:25.838] In whatever race you're running you'd be beat
[00:42.561] They tell me I'm a loser
[00:44.617] I'm a hopeless freak
[00:48.41] I look kind of funny and my little legs are weak
[00:53.553] The wrong side of the blanket
[00:55.913] The wrong side of the track
[00:58.954] I hear the accusations when they talk behind my back
[01:04.50] All the money is on the favorite
[01:06.618] I don't get a second glance
[01:09.330] I'm not even in the running here with an outside chance
[01:15.837] And then I see your lovely face
[01:21.45] Stand up and I'm back in the race
[01:26.450] Nothing is going to stop me
[01:28.930] I wasn't born to fail
[01:31.739] I'm taking the inside rail
[01:37.610] All the odds against me
[01:39.802] In the two horse race
[01:43.122] If I stand up they push me
[01:45.123] Back down flat on my face
[01:48.570] They tell me it's impossible
[01:50.931] It's just the way I'm bred
[01:53.843] And get these crazy notions right out of my head
[01:59.43] All the money's on the favorite
[02:01.667] I don't get a second glance
[02:04.475] I'm not even in the running here with an outside chance
[02:10.898] And then I see your lovely face
[02:16.130] Pay no attention to the odds I face
[02:21.674] I'm running from the outside
[02:23.754] I wasn't born to fail
[02:26.798] I'm taking the inside rail
[02:33.492] Last night I had a different dream
[02:38.300] I chased the moon's reflection in a running stream
[02:43.21] While all the stars in heaven
[02:46.117] Were standing there so still
[02:48.557] I just keep on running and I'm half way up the hill
[02:54.966] I see the crowd and the finish line
[03:00.166] I see the day when the prize is mine
[03:05.878] It maybe crazy the dream that I swear
[03:10.958] The clouds are all behind me
[03:13.646] The wind's in my hair
[03:17.54] And then I see your lovely face
[03:22.334] Pay no attention to the odds I face
[03:27.766] I'm running from the outside
[03:30.166] I wasn't born to fail
[03:32.862] I'm taking the inside rail
