VERSE:
I came to the coast to get away from it all,
but my head boxed me in
and spinning I began to fall.
Round and round like a cannon ball.
CHORUS:
I rode across the land on a manmade machine.
I drove it with heart and integrity
miles upon miles against the wind.
Miles upon miles with my face a grin;
miles upon miles again the wind.
So I picked myself for day two;
chasing the sun to the West but how to win the wind knew.
On the other coast what did I find?
So much for leaving it all behind.
The wind, it knew me how to find. It knew me how to find.
I rode across the land on a manmade machine.
I drove it with heart and integrity
miles upon miles against the wind.
Miles upon miles with my face a grin;
miles upon miles again the wind.
BRIDGE/SOLO:
I rode across the land on a manmade machine.
I drove it with heart and integrity
miles upon miles against the wind.
Miles upon miles with my face a grin;
miles upon miles again the wind.
