One Step Ahead — текст песни (Nik Kershaw)

I catch my breath and ready for the race to come
No prizes call, the contest is my opium
Since you can never be sure
When they`re keeping the score
You must always be ready to run
I tense myself
Waiting for the starting gun
No time for fun
Because

I work all day and I think all night
I break my body but that`s alright
`Cos it`ll take my mind and all my might
To keep one step ahead of you

I think to myself living is a winning school
Winning on your feet, winning on the street
Winning as a golden rule
It`s seems there`s always a test
And I`m doing my best
But there still seems a long way to go
I try myself
Trying everything I know
Pushing me so
So

(Chorus)

Don`t wanna know why
Don`t wanna know how or when or who
One step ahead
One more step ahead just to get me through

I try my best
Here comes another test
So wicked, no rest
Because

(Chorus 2x)
