Ticket To Ride


Ticket Ride

Old age is proof you made it through
Life's Tilt-a-Whirl and Roller Coaster ride
Amusement and Horror House. is there 2 do
but once in, There's no place hide

It's not about how you “get off”...
But about.... how you get in
Gump's "box of chocolates".. or a Wonka Bar
Finding the "Golden Ticket" win.

You can park yourself, outside the park
And wonder what 's like 2 be in
You can find the light or live in the dark
Never believing you could win.

You can sour apples, with good and bad
Or judge the right or wrong
Be glad it's something you never had
When you had it all along

The ups and downs, and all arounds
It's a love, 2 find or hide
but in the end....
YOU are the lucky one
When YOU got a "Ticket Ride"

The Beatles sure did make sense once you think about it.

After reading your post, I listened to 'Ticket to Ride' on utube which I enjoyed. I agree there is much richness in way of ideas to be found in their songs. 'Help!!' has just come to mind - think I'll listen to it now :- ) Thanks
