Riding With Sue

(album: Call Of The Wild - 1986)

We went out riding
Me and my girlfriend Sue
Riding through the desert
Where no one ever gets through
We got off our horses
And laid down in the sand
Suddenly I noticed
That we were in Disneyland...

And I was looking at the sky
Looking at the stars above
Thinking 'bout the days
When we were still in love
Sweet, sweet, sweet harmless love

We saw the hills in the distance
Their shape was coming clear
Her voice was full of tension
As she whispered in my ear:
If you take me there I'll make you fly!
She petted my hand and she gave me the eye
We'll be closer to God, oh me, oh my
I didn't know she was going to die!

And I was looking at the sky
Looking at the stars above
Thinking 'bout the days
When we were still in love
Sweet, sweet, sweet harmless love

We stood by the foot the mountains
And we started climbing up...
But when we reached the viewpoint
Sue decided to drop, aaargh!
She fell for an hour
Turning 'round and 'round like a wheel
And when she hit the bottom
I knew my heart would never heal

Now I'm looking at the stars...
Looking at the stars above
Thinking 'bout the days
When we were still in love
Sweet, sweet, sweet harmless love

And I was looking at the stars
Looking at the sky above
Thinking 'bout the days
When we were still in love
