There’s a time when you keep all that’s precious Close to your skin There’s a face in the window Reflects everywhere that you’ve been There’s a romantic notion You’re dancing to some silent song There’s a reason unknown Why a traveller keeps moving on
I’m just a passenger I’m just a stranger at the wheel I’m just a messenger And I can’t explain all the things I feel
So I ride Ride down the wind Search for the end of the road That you know might not ever come Come down in time Touch every hand that you find With a smile and a tear in your eye To a traveller it’s always goodbye
There’s a whisper of love That we keep for our innermost prayers Longing for destination But somehow I’ve never found where There’s a whirl and a blur Where our time and our youth always slips There’s a hope for salvation On every traveller’s lips
I’m just a passenger I’m just a sailor lost at sea I’m just a messenger And I can’t explain what’s inside of me
So I ride Ride down the wind Search for the end of the road That you know might not ever come
Come down in time Touch every hand that you find With a smile and a tear in your eye
I’m just a passenger I’m just a stranger at the wheel A lonely messenger And I can’t explain all the things I feel
So I ride Ride down the wind Search for the end of the road That you know might not ever come Come down in time Touch every hand that you find With a smile Oh and I’ll ride Ride down the wind Search for the end of the road That you know might not ever come Come down in time Touch every heart that you find With a smile and a tear in your eye To a traveller it’s always goodbye Goodbye
