Ride Easy (Live at The Regency Ballroom, San Francisco, CA, 7th November 2012)

Many days I've travelled

But I know not where I'm going to

I'm lost, lost along the way

From Mexico to Paris

Always the same solitary

Supper in an empty café

The faces were so empty

Meaningless and negative to me

I could have died

The bodies and the strangers

Reflected in their glasses as they drank

Not seeing eye to eye

Ride easy, my friends

This journey ends

Before it begins

Ride easy, my friends

This story ends

Before it begins

And the long Denver winter

When I thought that spring would never come again

Melting the snow

And many days I've reveled

Evening through to morning through to evening

With nothing to show

Ride easy, my friends

This journey ends

Before it begins

Ride easy, my friends

This story ends

Before it begins

The faces were so empty

Meaningless and negative to me

I could have died

The bodies and the strangers

Reflected in their glasses as they drank

Not seeing eye to eye

Many days I've travelled

Scheming back to social circles

Lost, lost along the way

And the many nights I've reveled

When I thought I saw a message in a bottle

And I dripped it away

Ride easy, my friends

This journey ends

Before it begins

Ride easy, my friends

This story ends

Before it begins

Ride easy, my friends

This journey ends

Before it begins

Ride easy, my friends

This story ends

Before it begins
