She Took Me For A Ride

She took me for a ride, in her little blue sports car
I didn’t know where we were going
Were we friends, or was it something more?
I felt I had no way of knowing

I was young, so very young
She seemed worldly and experienced
Women were a puzzle, I hadn’t solved
Illusive and mysterious

My heart was open, not yet broken
My clay was ready for the shaping
I longed to fly away, rise above the fray
Eager not to keep the future waiting

She took me for a ride, she opened up my eyes
Showed me a different way to be
She opened up my eyes, stripped away the veil
Showed me a different way to see

Glory be
Glory be
Glory be

She took me by surprise, forever changing
She always kept me on my toes
She took me to the edge, and brought me back again
I traced her every ebb and flow

My heart was open, not yet broken
My clay was ready for the shaping
I longed to fly away, rise above the fray
Eager not to keep the future waiting

She took me at my word, took me at her leisure
She saw all the way through me
She read me like a novel, always had my measure
With her l could be the real me

Glory be
Glory be
Glory be
