The Long Ride

[Verse 1]
I gotta face it, oh, Lord, I gotta face it
The trickiest plunder of all
Yes, indeed, I rob myself, I get it
I don't like confessions at all
The light in tunnels, oh, calls me like a beacon
My happiness is the control
Over my desires, and makes me weaken
With no expectations at all

[Pre-Chorus]
See how it looks, plans go down again
Look how we fill in the sight
Then I check out all the noisy big names
They're no longer my ride

[Chorus]
Yes, I try to make it work
Try again, fix it, then deliver it
And throughout that crazy blur
My so-called faith is at the heart of it

[Verse 2]
And I see it, oh, and I try to take it
The long ride to happiness shows
Hopes and fears ain't the present, get it
I'm focused on that simple prose

[Pre-Chorus]
See how it looks, plans go down again
Look how we fill in the sight
Then I check out all the noisy big names
They're no longer my ride

[Chorus]
Yes, I try to make it work
Try again, fix it, then deliver it
And throughout that crazy blur
My so-called faith is at the heart of it

[Bridge]
Ah, take me down to a profane profile
Ah, take me straight to the best-laid plans now
And I will head down to that real long ride
Playing fair, that's my share (Oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
See how it looks, plans go down again
Look how we fill in the sight
Then I check out all the noisy big names
They're no longer my ride

[Chorus]
Yes, I try to make it work
Try again, fix it, then deliver it
And throughout that crazy blur
My so-called faith is at the heart of it
Yes, I try to make it work
Try again, fix it, then deliver it
And throughout that crazy blur
My so-called faith is at the heart of it
