Ride Like The Wind
Michael Mind feat. Manfred Man Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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!
(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!
(Back) To be free again
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 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 the night!
It is the night!

In Michael Mind's song "Ride Like the Wind," the singer is on the run and must keep moving without stopping, indicated by the repetition of "no time to sleep." He must "ride like the wind" to reach the border of Mexico, where he hopes to be free again. Though his body is weak, he must keep going until he reaches his destination. The repetition of "it is the night" reinforces the sense of urgency and the idea that the singer must keep moving under the cover of darkness. Overall, the lyrics suggest a sense of desperation and the need to escape from something, but the exact nature of what the singer is running from is left up to interpretation.
One possible interpretation of the lyrics is that the singer is running from the law, as implied by the line about making it to the border of Mexico. The repetition of "ride like the wind" could be interpreted as a metaphor for the need to move quickly and without hesitation in order to avoid getting caught. The idea of being "free again" also suggests that the singer feels trapped or confined in some way, and the only way to regain their freedom is to keep moving until they reach the border.
Another interpretation is that the singer is running from a personal problem or emotional struggle. The repetition of "to be free again" could suggest a desire to escape from something that is holding them back or causing them pain. The urgency and desperation in the lyrics could indicate that the singer is at a breaking point and needs to take action to change their situation.
Overall, the lyrics to "Ride Like the Wind" suggest a sense of urgency, desperation, and the need to escape from something. The exact nature of what the singer is running from is left up to interpretation, but the overall message is clear: keep moving forward, no matter what.
