AUDIO ONLY. Happy Rhodes - Rhodes II - 13 - "The Chase" (1986)

This is listed as "CD version" on the credits because when Happy re-released the until-then cassette-only Rhodes II on CD in 1992, she edited the song quite a bit. The original cassette version can be found here: youtube.com/watch?v=57JbC_We9TA

Lyrics:

The Chase

My feet are failing me, I need to rest
My mind is killing me and it's doing its best
The chase is on, and I'm losing
And I'm trying to run, my legs are refusing
And I can feel his cold breath, lingering like death

Can't go any faster, I think I'm beat
I feel the disaster, and I feel the lack of his heat
The chase is on, and I'm losing
And I'm trying to run, my legs are refusing
And I can feel his cold breath, clinging to my neck

I'm running toward you, don't fail me now
I don't live life so well, I need you to show me how
The chase is on, and I'm losing
And I'm dying to run, my legs are refusing
And I can feel his cold breath
And it's lingering like death

And I can feel his cold cold breath
And it's clinging to my neck

The chase is on, the chase is on
The chase is on, the chase is on
The chase is on, the chase is on
The chase is on, the chase is on
