  • Take me to the river
    My soul is looking for a word from God
    Ooh, God
    Like a rose in the cold, will I rise?
    I'm packing my space suit
    And I'm taking my shit and moving to the moon
    Where there no rules

    Wake up, Mary
    Have you heard the news?
    You got to wake up, Mary
    You've got the right to choose
    I tried and heard the pride
    But the way the stars look into my eyes tonight
    Tell me who can, who can I trust?

    To get lost in your thoughts
    Is a very very complex thought
    And the things that you thought are surprising
    It's the way you believe
    That becomes the very thing you see
    Take a ride in the sky
    It's just calling

    But all your friends are gone
    And the trees will burn while the comets play on

    Tell me who can, who can I trust?
    I wanna fly
    Fly, fly to the, to the stars

    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you
    Ride, ride, ride
    Sally won't you

    I know you love me but I'm still goin'
    I know you love me but I'm still goin'
    I know you love me but I'm still goin'
    I got to make my peace
    I got to move on

    I know you love me but I'm still goin'
    I know you love me but I'm still goin'
    I know you love me but I'm still goin'
    I got to make my peace
    I got to move on

    Just wake up, Mary
    Have you heard the news?
    Oh, just wake up, Mary
    You got the right to choose
    Just wake up, Mary,
    There's some amazing news
    Just wake up, Mary
    You got the right to choose

    Real love
    I wanna feel the real love
    True love, ain't nobody got to steal love
    Wanna know what it really means to be in love
    Baby, gotta feel love
    Sometimes I just wanna get away
    Right now, going on right now. Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
