If You Could Give Me a Ride

If you could give me a ride
A ride to the Pacific seaside
I’d like to climb in and go for a spin
If you could give me a ride

Now that you have your own car
I’d like to pack up my guitar
And go on a holiday to where they will let me play
Now that you have your own car

How could you possibly be
Sixteen when you were only just three
When I consider the time and the moments sublime
I’m overwhelmed by divine mystery

I’m amazed by the world at your feet
And I savor each moment so sweet
That I get to spend around every bend
Sitting here in the passenger seat

So buckle your seat belt and drive
Drive safely and you will arrive
At your next destination and the occasional gas station
Just fill up your tank now and thrive

If you could give me a ride
A ride to the Pacific seaside
I’d like to climb in and go for a spin
If you could give me a ride
