about

This song is dead on inspired by a novel of mine: "For a Spin". Boy meets girl and the parents don't like that - the classic. So far. The two steal a car, just for a joyride but on the highway they pull over and find a Mafia victim in the trunk. Alive. Now they are followed by their own families and The Family... (I did sell the film rights back then and the novel was trad. published and award winning, I read it at 100s of schools ... a life time ago)

lyrics

Joyride Sky

The highway is empty, it s a cloudless night
And the sky is the color of your eyes
Your bare feet on the dashboard the wind is in your hair
This car ain't ours but we don't care

We're riding in the Joyride sky
We're leaving it all behind
Just you and I
In a Joyride sky
Yeah-yea-yeah we won
And you're riding shotgun

Our faces in the headlights, of the oncoming cars
We re feeling like a movie star
The radio is playing an unknown band
And we re quiet so we re not, ruin this moment

Another small town and another smalltime crime
We had to stock up on chocolate and wine
Now we re good for another hundred miles
And i m good for another your killing smiles

Before i m running out of dreams
I m running out of gas
That s what i call freedom, yes
