The Last Ride

It's the last ride Our little game is over It's the last ride It's time to take you home And we can't cry 'cause we seen it comin' No use runnin', take it slower It's a dangerous drive I'm afraid to arrive But I strive to survive More a fool than alive I thought, I knew just everything I had it made and I could coast But I turned away love when I needed it most It's the last ride My little game is over It's the last ride It's time to take me home And I can't cry 'cause I seen it comin' No use runnin', take it slower And the road rolls around And turns through the town The depression drips down And glazes the ground Horizons east and skylines west (The moon, the sun and all the rest) The loving son, the faithful wife (The burnt out wreck of a poor man's life) The Father, Son and Holy Ghost They all turned away love when they needed it most It's the last ride Their little game is over It's the last ride It's time to take them home And they can't cry 'cause they seen it comin' It's time to take you home It's time, it's time, it's time to take you home
