Big city miles stretching out into the terminal horizon
Don't you know we had to get away?
It was two kids with a beat up Nova,
And a dream and a two a.m. song
It was two kids with a beat up Nova singing come carry on
Come carry on 'till the night's all gone
Come carry on come right where we belong
The impossible girl lit a cigarette
And said "I don't give a damn if we never come home"
And I turned to her in the old starlight
And a tender amazement swallowed up the night
We could walk along be forever strong
Drive into the night, and the right, and the wrong
It was two kids with a beat up Nova, and a dream, and a two A.M. song
Chorus
There ain't no dream like the one that's real
Ashby to Eighty
Eighty to the Bridge
Bridge down to One
Route One carry on
We ate the night up and we shot the big coast
'cause the shoreline makes a heart open like a rose
She found a song on the radio
And it wiped all the blood off my halo
It was two kids, whose heart were their own
Toughest the world has ever known
Chorus
The lyrics CARRY ON of COMMON RIDER is also present in the album Last wave rockers (1999)
Common Rider sono stati una band ska punk formatasi nel 1999 da Jesse Michaels (chitarra, voce), Mass Giorgini (basso) e Dan Lumley (batteria). Il gruppo aveva un sound più morbido rispetto a quello dei Operation Ivy, la prima band di Michaels, ma conservava comunque la stessa energia e passione. Common Rider hanno pubblicato due album in studio: "Common Rider" (2001) e "The Last Ride" (2003), entrambi accolti positivamente dalla critica. La loro musica è caratterizzata da melodie ska orecchiabili, riff punk energici e testi introspettivi che esplorano temi come la solitudine, l'alienazione e la ricerca di un senso nella vita. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "The Last Ride", "Common Rider" e "Lost in the Crowd".
