The Ride - Luka Bloom

I think I'll go for a ride

Take the bike out of the shed

Make a fresh start

Get out of my head

When the head spins

There is no joy

Put me up on the saddle

I'm just a little boy

A little boy on a mission

Like the Tour de France

Like Fred and Ginger

When they were doing their dance

To the sound of the rubber

Out on the old bog road

Through the gorse and the heather

I'm as free as a bird

It helps me remember

How good it used to be

When I was a king

The bike the road and me

I think I'll go for a ride

Every ride has little victories

Challenges and trials

You hope the skies won't open

When home is many miles

You think you're cruising

Your world is flowing along

But a fall or a puncture

Anything can go wrong

Then you know you're vulnerable

At the mercy of the wind

With every hill you climb

You begin you begin

You begin to be a spokesman

With the freedom of the road

You see the Wicklow Mountains

And you know you have to go

I think I'll go for a ride

Summer evenings on the road

A cool breeze in my hair

Poetry in motion

On two wheels around Kildare

I think I'll go for a ride

There are cycling heroes

Each one is my pal

They inspire me when I'm pedaling

By the river or canal

Some days I'm Sean Kelly

Some days I'm David Byrne

Pedaling through Dublin Town

Or Portland Oregon

Mic Christopher in dreadlocks

Donal Lunny and Olwen Fouere

Cycling through the city

I'm waving to them all there

No petrol or diesel

You'll never get obese

A cadenza

In a musical piece

And there is peace

Peace of mind

When you ride the frontier

Between nature and mankind

I think I'll go for a ride (2x)

Summer evenings on the road

A cool breeze in my hair

Poetry in motion

On two wheels around Kildare

I think I'll go for a ride (3x)
