Starlight Ride Lyrics

Camel

There's a road that I must go
There are short cuts that I know
But I know that we'll make it eventually
On a starlight ride
There's a fire you got below
(That remain in me)
When the chilly winds will blow
(Leave me comfort you)
But as long as we let all our feelings show
It will never die
Feel the magic in the air
(In the summer night)
See the road ahead is clear
(But I'm feelin' fine)
Let's take every moment and drink it down
Like a mellow wine
In the slipstream of the night
(I hear music play)
Though its road is crystal bright
(Seems so far away)
And it leads us from here to forevermore
On a starlight ride
