lyrics

G-------------------D------------Am------------------------D--------
I tried. But what a ride. In this life, just to settle down at night.
-----------------------G--------------D---------------
And I don't want to fly. But It's alright. I
---------Am-----------------------------------D---------
felt the heights that could make a life ignite.
--D------------------------------G-------
You know it's easy when it's right!

G---------------------D----------------------------
All I want to see, is through that bedroom door.
Am--------------------------D---------------------
What's on the other side, is what I'm waiting for.
G---------------------------D-------------------------------------
And why should I escape? And what would fretting bring?
Am---------------------------D---------------------------G------
When floating doors appear... to every living thing- and I-

Made the ride! With all my lines, provocative and nice
And I don't want to fly. But it's alright. I felt the heights that could make a life ignite. All I want to do is ride!

I don't want to act! Or be the president!
It's all this town I'm in.. and all it's residents.
I don't want a yacht! Or see the pyramids!
But all the things I want- are things I already did!

And I don't want the crowns or the barons, or processions when the chalices come. I'd like to pack the car on a Friday- for the lake... And the sun!

I tried. But what a ride. In this life, just to settle down at night.
And I don't want to fly. But It's alright. I felt the heights that could make a life ignite. You know it's easy when it's right!

I just want to be, until a gentle end.
When I can stake my flag, as your most special friend.
And what a ride I made, in my most favorite town.
The doors can open up... I think I'm ready now! And I-

Made the ride! With all my lines, provocative and nice
And I don't want to fly. But it's alright! I felt the heights that could make a life ignite...

And I just liked the ride.
