It’s the last ride Our little game is over It’s the last ride It’s time to take you home And we can’t cry 'cause we seen it coming No use running, take it slower It’s a dangerous drive I’m afraid to arrive But I strive to survive More a fool than alive I thought I knew just everything I had it made and I could coast But I turned away love when I needed it most ---

You can’t go on Thinking nothing’s wrong Who’s gonna drive you home tonight? ---

Another day I call and never speak And you would say nothing’s changed at all And I can’t feel much hope for anything If I won’t be there to catch you when you fall Again It seems we meet In the spaces In between We always say It won’t take long But something’s always wrong ---

Breathe, breathe in the air Don’t be afraid to care Leave but don’t leave me Look around and chose your own ground For long you live and high you fly And smiles you’ll give and tears you’ll cry And all you touch and all you see Is all your life will ever be Run, run rabbit run Dig that hole, forget the sun, And when at last the work is done Don’t sit down, it’s time to dig another one For long you live and high you fly But only if you ride the tide And balanced on the biggest wave You race toward an early grave ---
