Ride on
Alina Lesnik Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Standing sixteen one or two, with eyes wild and green
And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch
I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
No matter how I wanted to
When you ride into the night without a trace behind
Run you claw along my gut one last time
I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie
I look for the spark that lights the night
Through the teardrop in my eye
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
The lyrics of Alina Lesnik's song "Ride On" tell a story of unrequited love and longing. The singer describes a person who rides a magnificent horse, captivating their attention. The horse is described as standing tall and strong, with wild green eyes. The rider exhibits exceptional skill, with their hands light and gentle on the reins. Despite the intense desire and longing to be with this person, the singer acknowledges that they can never be together.
The repetition of the phrase "I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to" emphasizes the emotional struggle the singer faces. There is a sense of resignation and acceptance that they can never be with the person they long for. The line "When you ride into the night without a trace behind" suggests that the person leaves abruptly, without leaving any trace or explanation behind. This departure leaves the singer feeling empty and longing for the connection they once had.
The final lines, "I look for the spark that lights the night through the teardrop in my eye," alludes to the hope and longing the singer still holds onto, despite knowing they can never be with this person. It's a bittersweet and poignant exploration of unattainable love and the pain that comes with it.
Line by Line Meaning
True, you ride the finest horse I have ever seen
It is undeniable that you possess great skill and elegance in your actions, just like the remarkable horse you ride
Standing sixteen one or two, with eyes wild and green
The horse stands tall, measuring sixteen hands, portraying a sense of power and vitality with its mesmerizing green eyes
And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch
Your ability to control the horse is exceptional, with your gentle touch guiding its movements effortlessly
I could never go with you
Despite my desire, I simply cannot accompany you on your journey
No matter how I wanted to
Regardless of the intensity of my longing, it remains impossible for me to join you
When you ride into the night without a trace behind
As you disappear into the darkness without leaving any evidence of your presence
Run your claw along my gut one last time
You inflict a final emotional wound upon me, leaving me in pain and vulnerability
I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie
I am confronted with the empty void that remains now that you are no longer here
I look for the spark that lights the night
I search for any sign of hope or passion that can guide me through this dark period
Through the teardrop in my eye
Despite the tears that blur my vision, I strive to find meaning and purpose
I could never go with you
Once again, it is underlined that it is impossible for me to accompany you
No matter how I wanted to
Regardless of my deepest desires, the circumstances prevent me from being with you
