Lana Del Rey - Ride (Long Version) Lyrics (.LRC)
[00:00.00]By RentAnAdviser.com
[00:32.70]I was in the winter of my life,
[00:36.20]and the men I met along the road were my only summer.
[00:41.60]At night I fell asleep with visions of myself,
[00:44.50]dancing and laughing and crying with them.
[00:48.70]Three years down the line of being on an endless world tour,
[00:52.80]and my memories of them were the only things that sustained me,
[00:56.40]and my only real happy times.
[01:08.30]I was a singer
[01:10.60]not a very popular one,
[01:12.70]I once had dreams of becoming a beautiful poet,
[01:16.30]but upon an unfortunate series of events saw those dreams dashed and divided like a million stars in the night sky
[01:25.30]that I wished on over and over again,
[01:27.90]sparkling and broken.
[01:31.20]But I didn't really mind because I knew that
[01:34.70]it takes getting everything you ever wanted,
[01:37.30]and then losing it to know what true freedom is.
[01:48.30]When the people I used to know
[01:49.90]found out what I had been doing,
[01:52.10]how I'd been living, they asked me why
[01:55.60]but there's no use in talking to people who have home.
[01:59.80]They have no idea what it's like to seek safety in other people
[02:04.60]for home to be wherever you lay your head.
[02:10.70]I was always an unusual girl.
[02:17.80]My mother told me I had a chameleon soul,
[02:21.30]no m**** compass pointing due north,
[02:24.30]no fixed personality;
[02:27.70]just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean...
[02:37.00]And if I said I didn't plan for it to turn out this way I'd be lying...
[02:44.60]Because I was born to be the other woman.
[02:49.10]Who belonged to no one,
[02:51.60]who belonged to everyone.
[02:55.00]Who had nothing,
[02:57.00]who wanted everything,
[03:00.40]with a fire for every experience
[03:03.10]and an obsession for freedom
[03:05.50]that terrified me to the point that I couldn't even talk about it,
[03:10.40]and pushed me to a nomadic point of madness that both dazzled and dizzied me.
[03:47.20]I've been out on that open road
[03:55.40]You can be my full time daddy,
[03:58.00]White and gold
[04:05.00]Singing blues has been getting old
[04:13.20]You can be my full time baby,
[04:15.80]Hot or cold
[04:20.30]Don't break me down
[04:25.50]I've been travelin' too long
[04:30.40]I've been trying too hard
[04:35.50]With one pretty song
[04:43.00]I hear the birds on the summer breeze,
[04:46.90]I drive fast, I am alone in midnight
[04:53.20]Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble,
[04:57.20]But I, I've got a war in my mind
[05:01.50]So, I just ride, just ride,
[05:12.50]I just ride, just ride
[05:24.00]Dying young and I'm playing hard
[05:32.50]That's the way my father made his life an art
[05:41.80]Drink all day and we talk 'til dark
[05:50.20]That's the way the road dogs do it ride 'til dark.
[05:57.30]Don't leave me now
[06:02.50]Don't say good bye
[06:07.60]Don't turn around
[06:12.50]Leave me high and dry
[06:20.10]I hear the birds on the summer breeze,
[06:23.80]I drive fast, I am alone in midnight
[06:30.20]Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble,
[06:34.10]But I, I've got a war in my mind
[06:39.40]I just ride, just ride,
[06:49.40]I just ride, just ride
[07:00.90]I'm tired of feeling like I'm ******* crazy
[07:05.90]I'm tired of driving 'til I see stars in my eyes
[07:11.10]It's all I've got to keep myself sane, baby
[07:15.60]So I just ride, I just ride
[07:21.70]I hear the birds on the summer breeze,
[07:25.10]I drive fast, I am alone in midnight
[07:31.40]Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble,
[07:35.40]But I, I've got a war in my mind
[07:40.70]I just ride, just ride,
[07:50.80]I just ride, I just ride
[08:17.60]Every night I used to pray that I'd find my people,
[08:22.30]and finally I did on the open road.
[08:30.20]We had nothing to lose,
[08:32.00]nothing to gain,
[08:33.80]nothing we desired anymore,
[08:37.30]except to make our lives into a work of art.
[08:41.20]Live fast. Die young. Be wild. And have fun.
[08:51.40]I believe in the country America used to be.
[08:55.30]I believe in the person I want to become.
[08:58.90]I believe in the freedom of the open road.
[09:02.40]And my motto is the same as ever:
[09:06.60]"I believe in the kindness of strangers.
[09:10.50]And when I'm at war with myself I ride, I just ride."
[09:20.80]Who are you?
[09:22.30]Are you in touch with all of your darkest *********?
[09:26.20]Have you created a life for yourself where you can experience them?
[09:31.70]I have. I am ******* crazy.
[09:40.70]But I am free.
