Lyrics

Verse 1
I wrote this song to help you sleep, When your mind keeps turning, thinking deep
Mind escape to someplace else, somewhere you can be yourself
Chorus 1
Life is one big journey, No destinations here
Take each day as it arrives, Tomorrows disappear
One lesson l've learned, after 40 years of life
Savour every moment, Relax....its just a ride.
Enjoy the ride
Verse 2
Imagine you are on a beach, as the tide moves gently to soothe your feet
You sit and watch the sun go down, take a long deep breath, remove that frown
Chorus 2
No matter how alone you feel, there's at least two that care
Even if they're far away, imagine they are there
One lesson life taught me after 40 years survived
Anything can happen, relax.... its just a ride.
Middle 8
You make the choices that you make, Nobody can judge you, No-one is to blame,
Just take one minute at a time
Relax.......
Chorus 3
(Start high like a harmony) Those that care the most for you, are sometimes not around
(Normal from here onwards) But anyone ? that loves you, won't want to see you down
One lesson i've learned after 40 years alive
No-one knows the future
Relax, its just a ride.
Enjoy your Ride
