Story Behind the Song
About a small town girl, having dreams of the Big City. Talks about the Ride, or road she takes, and what she does, in her life. Before she knows it, she has grown up, wondering what she has done with her life.
Basically about the ride of life we all take. How fast, or how slow we go is up to us. We have to remember how our actions affects those around us, especially those loved ones.
Lyrics
You got me, spinning around in circles
Going town to town all night, and into the day yeah
We spend a lot of time laughing
Weren't afraid to show some tears, along the way.
She steps off the Bus, looking for a change of pace
This time she's going to do things right, dancing the night away.
Ahhh-ain't it funny, how life passed you by,
Ahhh-ain't funny, how life treats you this way,
The ride gets better every day.
You got your wheels set in motion,
Looking for that big city ride, and that big city pay, yeah
Memories of your youth keep on slipping.
No more butterfly kisses, or daddy's ways.
Who you gonna trust, when your backs up against the wall.
Who's going be there to hear you when you cry, or catch you when you fall.
Ahhh- ain't it funny, how life passed you by,
Ahhh- ain't it funny, how life treats you this way.
Ain't it funny, how in a different light,
it all just fades to gray,
It's funny how the ride goes on this way,
the ride gets better everyday.
Sometimes you sit down and wonder,
They got you thinking back, about choices you made yeah,
Your life's like another passing summer,
And your past is in a book, on an empty page.
What happened to that lust, and the fire that was in your eyes.
Innocence lost, in your heart and your soul.
Just waiting for another ride.
