Just a Ride Lyrics by Jem

Finally Woken (20th Anniversary Remastered Edition)

2005

[Verse 1]
Life, it's ever so strange
It's so full of change
Think that you've worked it out
Then 'bang'
Right out of the blue
Something happens to you
To throw you off course
And then you
[Pre-Chorus]
Breakdown
Yeah, you breakdown
Well, don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because
[Chorus]
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you 'round and 'round
Sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared, don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget, it's just a ride
[Verse 2]
Truth, we don't wanna hear (Don't wanna hear)
It's too much to take (Too much to take)
Don't like to feel out of control
So we make our plans (We make our plans)
Ten times a day (Ten times a day)
And when they don't go our way, we
[Pre-Chorus]
Breakdown
Yeah, we breakdown
Well, don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because
[Chorus]
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you 'round and 'round
Sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared, don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget, it's just a ride
[Bridge]
Slowly, oh so very slowly
Accept that there's no getting off
So live it, just gotta go with it
'Cause this ride's never gonna stop (Stop, stop, stop)
[Pre-Chorus]
Breakdown
Don't you breakdown
No need to breakdown
No need at all
Because
[Chorus]
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared, now dry your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget, enjoy the ride
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared, now dry your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget, enjoy the ride
