Race for Your Heart Songtext
von The Temptations

Watching you yeah
Yeah, yeah
Be careful, watching you

I was at the right place, at the right time
Saw you first, said you′re mine
Gotta make a move, before he do
I can't afford to wait, it might be too late
Baby take this special time with me
Let me show you, how sweet life can be
There ain′t no way I'll ever let it feed me
Girl you can't pass by me
You just can′t deny me


(I′m watching you) watching you
Watching you
Oh babe, it's a race
(Oh it′s a race)
For your heart
Who will get there first? (Watching you)
(Watching you) got to get there first
It's a race, mmm
For your heart, yeah, yeah

Very close encounters
But we′re pushing all kinds
That's exactly what I had in mind, oh
In a room so crowded as can be
Girl I just can′t let you slip away from me, no
Girl, you are a guiding light to me
And I hope you never choose him over me
(Choose him over me)
I need you in my life, lady can't you see?
'Cause without your love, without your love
I, I, I just can′t be

I′m watching you
Watching you
It's a race
For your heart
Who will get there first?
(Watching you) got to get there first
It′s a race
For your heart


Any man
Who's in his right mind
Know that you are a treasure, hard to find
(So hard to find, so hard to find)
I′m always hurt, I felt that love is blind
But baby if this is true
You can leave me where you want to
Babe

I think about you baby
Watching you
(Watching him, watching you)
(Don't keep watching me)
(Watching him, watching you)
Hope that you′ve been watching me
(Watching him, watching you)
Hope that you've been watching me
(Watching him, watching you)
Hope that you've been watching me

I′m watching you
(Watching you) I got to get there
(It′s a race, for your heart)
(Who will get there first?)
For your love (watching you)
(It's a race, for your heart)

I can′t take my eyes off you
I know you've been watching too
It′s a race for you love, ah
By a chance can I get your number?
(I hope I'm not offending you)
Watching him, watching you
Watching him, watching you
Watching him, watching you
I hope that you′ve been watching me
Watching him, watching you
Watching him, watching you
Watching him, watching you
