Verse 1 When the distance feels too long, When your breath is barely strong, Every stroke, I’ll see it through, I will count the laps for you. Verse 2 When the water drags you down, When your heart begins to drown, I’ll be steady, strong, and true, I will count the laps for you. Chorus I will count the laps for you, Every turn, I’ll guide you through. Side by side, we’ll see it through, I will count the laps for you. Verse 3 Every wall, the numbers rise, Hope is burning in your eyes. Even when the crowd is few, I will count the laps for you. Verse 4 Through the silence, through the pain, Every lap is not in vain. You are strong — but I am too, I will count the laps for you. Chorus I will count the laps for you, Every turn, I’ll guide you through. Side by side, we’ll see it through, I will count the laps for you. Bridge (Chant) One by one, we’ll mark the fight, Lap by lap, we’ll reach the light. Never lost, I’ll see you through, I will count the laps for you! Final Chorus (Big + Layered) I will count the laps for you, Every breath, I’ll carry too. No matter what the race may do, I will count the laps for you.
