Riding my life

Like a run-a-way train

Moving from

One track to that

Howling, crying,

Screaming at the moon

Only my voice came back

Only the echo came back



When I was a boy

Daddy told me

Grow tall

Yes and Billy don't crawl

Taught me how to ride

Set me out on my own

And I never came back



And yes I'd do it again

Oh wouldn't you

Yeah I'd do it again

A-huh oh yeah

Do it again

Baby

Wouldn't you?



Remember

When I lied

Just when you

Needed me

Now I sit

Alone and cry

Cos now I believe in mercy

Remember when I lied

Just when you needed me baby

I believe in mercy



Riding, walking

Looking so cool

Guess I crossed

Over the borderline

Treated like a dunce

Who just can't read

Did I fool me too?

And yes I'd do it again

Oh wouldn't you

Yes I'd do it again

Aha yeah I'd do it again

Baby

Wouldn't you



Remember

When I lied

Just when you

Needed me

Now I sit

Alone and cry

Cos now I believe in mercy

Remember when I lied

Now that you

Needed me

Yes I believe in mercy



I said "Come here"

Look into my face

And hear into my heart

Hesitation

Could re-arrange

The other side

To your love

Take hold now baby

And take

What other

Lovers have not

Times is changing

Will they re-arrange



The other side to your love

No-woah woah woah

Yeah



Wooooo
