Lyrics Riding Shotgun - Ric Ocasek

Riding Shotgun

Tell me you’re ready
When you’re feeling dapper
Thinking it over
Should not take so long
What does it matter
All delusions stick around
You want to recover
From your empty walls, yeah
It’s only love
It’s only love
And when the picture falters
It’s only love
It’s riding shotgun straight through to your heart
Riding shotgun in the dark, yeah
I’m coming with a real kick start
Riding shotgun straight through to your heart
All your illusions
They keep you busy lately
All revolutions
Fail in the fragile face of time
You only know
It’s just a risk you got to take
Red drops of pain
Making you weak inside, but
It’s only love, yeah
It’s only love
And when the picture falters
It’s only love
It’s riding shotgun straight through to your heart
Riding shotgun in the dark, ha
I’m coming with a real kick start
Riding shotgun straight through to your heart
Tell me you’re ready
I know you feel it coming
Could not decipher
What they really meant to say
Caught off guard
Wrecking your tinsel tainted scene
Going too far on a makeshift dream
It’s only love
It’s only love
And when the picture falters
It’s only love
It’s riding shotgun straight through to your heart
Riding shotgun in the dark, yeah
I’m coming with a real kick start
Riding shotgun straight through to your heart
