| Let it ride, let it ride, let it roll off your mind | 
| Don’t say a single world, get back inside | 
| Let me drive, let me drive, disappear in the night | 
| Like I was a ghost in your dreams | 
| And it was all completely wrong, Virginia | 
| You were much too much for me | 
| I was a boy on the lawn, with his eyes to the sky | 
| You were Garbo, smoke, and deceit | 
| And it was Saturday, September, and fire | 
| It was a backdrop set in your smile | 
| It was all I could want in the sway of the song | 
| I was haunted for so many years | 
| Let it ride, let it ride, let it roll off your mind | 
| Don’t say a single world, get back inside | 
| Let me drive, let me drive, disappear in the night | 
| Like I was a ghost in your dreams | 
| Say goodbye, say goodbye, give a kiss and a sigh | 
| Never, never, never bring me back to your mind | 
| Let it slide, slide, roll off your mind | 
| Like I was a movie you’d seen | 
| And it was all just a crime, Virginia | 
| Let your fire be mercy to me | 
| I was a boy in your arms, safe in your arms | 
| And you swore like a promise to me | 
| That I would never, never, never leave your heart | 
| No I would never, never, never leave your heart | 
| But where are you now, I can still feel you now | 
| And I hear all your songs in the breeze | 
| Let it ride, let it ride, let it roll off your mind | 
| Don’t say a single world, get back inside | 
| Let me drive, let me drive, disappear in the night | 
| Like I was a ghost in your dreams | 
| Say goodbye, say goodbye, give a kiss and a sigh | 
| Never, never, never bring me back to your mind | 
| Let me slide, slide, roll off your mind | 
| Like I was a movie you’d seen | 
| Let it ride |
