saw a car burning down on the side of the highway an ambulance came but i couldn t tell if it got there on time there were lights all a flashing i could see them through the rear view mirror we watched them disappear if you gimme a ride i ll take you higher if you gimme a ride i ll lift your weary eyes if you gimme a ride through shadows on a dime if you gimme a ride i ll do the same for you sometimes people come and go but they fit just like pieces of puzzles well pieces of troubles lovers come lovers move on i looked for you in the rubble but i couldn t find you i can t seem to let you go this is where we cross that line this is where we lost our time abandon love every time for something more if you gimme a ride i ll take you higher if you gimme a ride i ll lift your weary eyes if you gimme a ride through shadows on a dime if you gimme a ride i ll do the same for you sometimes
