Lyrics

Hangin on tight
To the side of my rickety ride
Flying through the air
With my legs flapping out in the wind
Last week around this time...
I was in this song with its arms around me
Listening for the last beat when I let go

I don't know how these phrases all will fall
But I'll sing them all night long
And pull them all apart and start again
I wanna know when...when my ride is gonna end
Doesn't it scare you when...??? sometimes I wanna

I wanna cry, I wanna lie
I start to feel like I'm hanging right over the side of
My Roller Coaster Ride

Sometimes I'm on my way up
And then back down
I gotta pick myself off of the ground
Push through the bad times and I'm gonna be fine
I got to do my best with the little I know

I don't know how these phrases all will fall
But I'll sing them all night long
And pull them all apart and start again
Becuase I wanna know when...when my ride is gonna end??
Doesn't it scare you when...????, sometimes I wanna

I wanna cry, I wanna lie
I start to feel like I'm hanging right over the side
I hold on tight!!!! I don't ask why.
I climb right back inside!!!
Its just a matter of time before I'm hanging back over the side of
My Roller Coaster Ride

Sometimes I wanna cry, I wanna lie
I start to feel like I'm hanging right over the side
I hold on tight

I would do it all right
If I get to ride My Roller Coaster one more time
I'm gonna do whats right
I'm gonna dry my eyes
And hang right over the side of My Roller Coaster Ride
