Life, it’s ever so strange
It’s so full of change
Think that you’ve worked it out then bang
Right out of the blue
Something happens to you
To throw you off course and then you
Break down, yeah you break down
Don’t you break down
Listen to me, because

It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It’ll take you round and round
Sometimes you’re up, sometimes you’re down

It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
Don’t be scared, don’t hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don’t forget it’s just a ride

Truth we don’t wanna hear
It’s too much to take
Don’t like to feel out of control
So we make our plans, ten times a day
And when they don’t go our way
We break down, yeah we break down
Don’t you break down
Listen to me, because

It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It’ll take you round and round
Sometimes you’re up, sometimes you’re down

It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
Don’t be scared, don’t hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don’t forget it’s just a ride

Slowly, oh so very slowly
Except that there’s no getting off
So live it, just got t go with it
Cuz this ride’s never gonna stop

Break down, don’t you break down
No need to break down
No need at all, because

It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It’ll take you all around
Sometimes you’re up, sometimes you’re down

It’s just a ride; it’s just a ride
Don’t be scared, now dry your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don’t forget enjoy the ride
