    This is a complete shot in the dark, and I may be utterly wrong, but perhaps the song you are looking for is "The Distance" by Cake. (Yes, the band is called Cake.) The lyrics are as follows:

    Reluctantly crouched at the starting line
    Engines pumping and thumping in time
    The green light flashes, the flags go up
    Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup

    They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank
    Fuel burning fast on an empty tank
    Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns
    Their prowess is potent and secretly stern

    As they speed through the finish, the flags go down
    The fans get up and they get out of town
    The arena is empty except for one man
    Still driving and striving as fast as he can

    The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
    And long ago somebody left with the cup
    But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns
    And thinking of someone for whom he still burns

    He's going the distance, he's going for speed
    She's all alone, all alone in her time of need
    Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
    He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
    He's going the distance

    No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine
    He's haunted by something he cannot define
    Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse
    Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force

    In his mind, he's still driving, still making the grade
    She's hoping in time that her memories will fade
    'Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
    He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse

    The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
    And long ago somebody left with the cup
    But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns
    And thinking of someone for whom he still burns

    'Cause he's going the distance, he's going for speed
    She's all alone, all alone in her time of need
    Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
    He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
    He's racing and pacing and plotting the course
    He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
    He's going the distance, he's going for speed
    He's going the distance

    (These lyrics were obtained from music.yahoo.com.)

    I could not find a proper youtube video for the song, but the "official" video is on yahoo, and here is the link (just click on "The Distance" - http://music.yahoo.com/ar-294061-videos--Cake

    If this is not correct, please post back. At the very least we would be able to eliminate this as a possibility.
