Ride Like The Wind
Michael Mind Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
(Back) To be free again
It is the night!
It is the night!
(Back) To be free again
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!

And I've got such a long way to go
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind
(Back) wind

It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
(Back) To be free again
It is the night!
It is the night!
(Back) To be free again
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!

I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
(Back) To be free again
It is the night!

It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
(Back) To be free again
It is the night!
It is the night!
(Back) To be free again
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night!
It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
(Back) To be free again
It is the night!
It is the night!
(Back) To be free again

It is the night!

It is extremely rare that pieces like this come out of nowhere, they are so unbelievably good that one gets the impression that they are not from this world.
Everything about these songs is just right: the soul, the bass line, the mix, the arrangement, the vocals - everything. They take you into another world, let you forget everyday life for a moment, no matter how dark it may be.

These tracks have a spirit that few have that makes that possible and ensures that once you've heard them, you'll never forget them.

And I'm thankful to be able to find such rare gems here, because compared to these dreamlike tracks, what's in the charts is absolute rubbish....

Thank you for this incredibly beautiful and fascinating track!!!
