Mary Gauthier - Still On The Ride Lyrics






Lookin' back now, who the hell knows
Where the soul of a dead solider goes?
Guardian angels, maybe they're true
My guardian angel, maybe it's you

I shouldn't be here, you shouldn't be gone
But it's not up to me who dies and who carries on
I sit in my room, I close my eyes
Me and my guardian angel, we're still on the ride

Got holes in my ear drums, bruises and clots
Double vision, and my stomachs in knots
Got pain in my fingers, I hurt from my head to my toes
I wake up feelin' like I'm ninety years old

I shouldn't be here, you shouldn't be gone
But it's not up to me who dies and who carries on
I sit in my room, I close my eyes
Me and my guardian angel, we're still on the ride

You were my bother, you were more than a friend
You were family to me right up till the end
You're still with me now, I feel you, I know
You're pushin' me forward and you'll never let go

I shouldn't be here, you shouldn't be gone
But it's not up to me who dies and who carries on
So I sit in my room and I close my eyes
And me and my guardian angel, we're still on the ride

    💕💗🙏😘🙏💗💕 No words exist to say how much I love your songs 🌻

    This song is just about the most heartbreaking beautiful tune ever recorded. Great to drink and smoke to, I sing my heart out to every lyric. Timeless and heartfelt, this song speaks to my soul. Thank you. Much love from ATX✌

    I mean no disrespect. I have never been in the military and no way am I trying to compare my life with our Vets who give so much. This song still kicks me in the gut. I am a recovering addict who wasted my life most of my adult years. I have lost some loved ones to cancer over the last few years who I feel deserved to live much more than me. These were women who had always lived clean lives. Anyway Friday Night October 26, 2019, I had a massive Heart Attack but I am still here and they are still gone. However, this song reminds me that it is not about me and I need to get out of this rut and do something with the life I have been given. Tonight is the first time I have ever heard this song and now Mary Gauthier has a fan for life.

    You don't need to be a veteran to understand pain. It's not how we got there that matters it's the end results.

    The whole album is Grammy worthy. So many times I've been brought to tears. The strength of your songs, Mary, will live on. We love you.

    Only just realised your talent Mary through this song. Absolutely fantastic I've had it on repeat!

  10. B.... M....

    From a 64 yr old fart from Kalaskraal, South Africa, Guy with all due respect, don't agree, Neither Bob or Neil have been on the life journey that Mary has been, and they have not been on the life journey of the Vet, this is as pure about you'll ever get - absolutely heart and soul felt - don't get me wrong, I love Bob And Neil, but this is on a complete different level - its church

    B.... M....

    you should listen to johnny cash, "like a soldier",
    peace to you
