Ride

Jamie Walters Ride Lyrics
1.Dog On A Chain

Don't ya know you confuse me,

Everytime you walk away.

And i feel like you just use me,

'cause you know i'm gonna stay.

Where ya lead i just follow,

Anywhere i come to you.

Chorus

Like a dog on a chain.

When you call out my name.

I come runnin' to you,

You give me somethin' sweet.

And i'll lay right at your feet.

I come runnin' to you.

Runnin' to you.

Everytime you deny me,

I still want you anyway.

And then you look right by me,

You don't hear a word i say.

Where ya lead i just follow

Anywhere i come to you.

Chorus

Darlin' if you only knew,

What you mean to me.

You would never be so mean to me.

Where ya lead i just follow.

Anywhere i come to you.

Chorus


2.Fly On Sweet Angel

I feel you livin' inside me,

I feel you beating my heart.

I've got the time that you gave me,

To keep me while we're apart.

Slip into the golden place,

Light streaming from your face.

Chorus

Fly on my sweet angel,

Fly on...

Fly away.

Fly on my sweet angel,

Fly on...

Fly away.

You come here when i am sleepin'

You know i want you to stay.

I can't see that i've been dreamin'

'cause these dreams just take me away.

Slip into the golden place,

Light streaming from your face.

To chorus

Slip into the golden place,

Light streaming from your face.

Fly on my sweet angel

Fly on

Fly away

Fly on my sweet angel

My angel

Fly away

Fly on my sweet angel

Fly on

Fly on my sweet angel

Angel

Fly away


3.I'd Do Anything For You

Nothin's gonna hurt you

As long as i am here

We're both livin'for the dream

And i wont desert you

So c'mon and dry your tears

You know it's never as bad as it seems

It just kills me

To see that you've been cryin'

Everybody needs someone to help 'em sometime

Chorus

I'd do anything for you

I'd change the world

And give it back to you

And everything i've got

I'd give it all to you

I'd do anything for you

When nobody sees you and nobody hears a word

Let me be the one you come to

And all those wishes

That you thought no one heard

I would try to make'em come true

And it just kills me

To see that you've been cryin'

Well everybody needs

Someone to help'm sometime

Chorus

Look at me

I'm just like you

And everything you need

Well i need it too

Chorus

I'd do anything for you

I'd do anything for you

4.In Between

Do you feel me

When i lay awake at night

I'm feeling you.

Do you see me

When i close my eyes

I'm seeing you.

Do you hear me

When i dream at night

And i try to tell you

That i need someone

A connection

To try & live again

Chorus

I keep waiting

Straight through the night

I keep waiting

For things to turn out right

I keep waiting

Living in a dream

And i'm somehow stuck here

In between.

Every night's the same

I tell myself to slip away

In my mind i wait

To see your face

I breathe your name

Do you hear me

When i dream at night

And try to tell you

That i need someone

A connection

To try & live again.

Chorus

Do you hear me

When i scream at night

And try to tell you

I kept waiting

Straight through the night

Try to tell you

Things just ain't right

I keep waiting

Living in a dream

And somehow stuck here

In between

In between.


5.Long Way Down

Totally nude,

What a thing to do.

Get shot down by a dancer.

She kept tellin' me, she would set me free,

I just had to take my chances.

Chorus:

Save me, i'm fallin'

It's a long way down.

Save me, she's callin'

It's a long way down.

Blinded by the sun,

There's nowhere to run.

I knew she was bound to find me.

Gone without a sound,

Now my future's all behind me.

Chorus

Bridge:

Weren't we havin' fun?

'till you got your gun.

Now my future's all behind me,

Out in malibu, what a thing to do.


6.Nobody But You

When i'm in trouble

And i need someone

Who knows my secret heart.

There's nowhere to run, baby

But straight to your arms

And you hold me in the dark.

Something inside me starts to move

And i know i can put my faith in you.

Chorus

Nobody but you. nobody but you.

Nobody but you. nobody but you.

It's one of those lonely days

In this lonely world

The signs are so hard to see.

Just show me the way now

To get back to you girl

That's where i need to be.

Something inside me starts to move

And i know i can put my faith in you.

Chorus

Somethin' inside me starts to move

And i know i can put my faith in you.

Chorus


7.Reckless

Nothin's changin' but the shadows on the wall

I wish i could leave myself at the end of the hall

Always pushin' pushin' away what i need the most

Well here i go again but this time we got so close

Chorus

I was reckless reckless

I was reckless to the end

I was foolish and careless

And reckless once again

It looks like i really led myself astray

And even i don't believe half the things i say

Always runnin' and i still don't know where i am

I just can't afford to let you slip right thru my

Hands

Chorus

All the right words remain unspoken

Another promise made

Another promise broken

Chorus

I was reckless once again...

8.The Great Escape

Why don't we give it a try,

Everybody's waiting to see.

If i'm calling you

Or if you're calling me.

It's the same, oh why can't they see.

At night i look to the stars,

And chart out a course out for mars.

I could take you there

Or you could take me here

It's a game, oh why can't they see.

1st chorus

Let's make the great escape

And get out of this place.

Straight to outer space

Where we can be alone, yeah.

I look myself in the eye

And ask myself why.

I could take you here

And you could take me there.

It's the same, oh why can't they see.

2nd chorus

Let's make the great escape

And get out of this place

Let's make the great escape

And get on out of this place.

Straight to outer space

Where we can be alone

Straight to outer space

Where we can have a home


9.The Other Side

Sugar cane blows in the breeze

Brings back those memories

Of fireflies & the 4th of july

With you

And maybe it's not the time

And maybe it's not the place

Sweet days turn into nights

With you.

Chorus

Tonight

When the stars are in your eyes

And your dreams become your life

Maybe someday somewhere

I will find you

And take you for a ride

To the other side

The other side.

At sundown we look to the sky

Holdin' hands as the rockets fly high.

These are the pirates of my days

With you

And lately i can't recall

Where the summer slept & gave

To the fall

All these memories that i shared

With you.

Chorus


10.Winona

I tried to call you but the line was busy.

Were you talking to a friend?

And when i tried again much later,

I didn't want to let it ring again.

So you can see i got a problem,

Back by popular demand.

Sometimes i want to keep it from you,

Sometimes i think you'd understand.

Chorus

Could you be my little movie star?

Could you be my long lost girl?

It's true that i don't really know you,

I'm alone in the world.

When i think maybe i need you.

And i don't care if it's not true.

It isn't so much what i need now

As what i really want from you.

Chorus

It's true that i really don't need you...

I'm all alone in the world.


11.You

Why you tell me not to leave,

You tell me not to cry.

Why you tell me not to leave,

You tell me not to cry.

And love is just another word,

That keeps me here tonight.

And tears are just another fool,

A weapon when we fight.

What have we done here at what is the cost,

Of all these feelings & love that we've lost.

Chorus

And it's you, that keeps me here tonight.

Yeah it's you, that leads me to the light.

Words we've said them all before

Got nothin' left to say.

And truth is something we both know,

Is something we left far away.

What have we done here at what is the cost.

Of all these feelings & love that we've lost.

Chorus

Bridge:

Give me something i can feel

Something we both know is real

And make me believe.

Chorus
