13th Floor Elevators - Roller Coaster lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Once, somewhere, sometime ago

His eyes were clear to see

He put his thoughts into my mind

And gave my self to be

He stopped me from living so unsane

I could be just what I want to be

Things appear as they really are

I can see just what I want to see

(Chorus)

Come on, and let it happen to you!

I say, I say come on, and let it happen to you

You gotta open up your mind

And let everything come through, come on, yeah!

(Verse_

Well it starts like a roller coaster ride,

So real it takes your breath away

It slides you through your point of view,

You look back to where you thought you'd stayed

Your ride changes outside view,

While it glides you like a neon ray,

And you find you don't have to search for words,

For there's nothing to be said

(Chorus)

Come on, you gotta let it happen to you

Hey, come on, and let it happen to you

You gotta open up your mind

And let everything come through

(Verse)

After you trip life opens up

You start doing what you want to do

And you find out that the world that you once feared

Gets what it has from you

No one can ever hurt you

But you know more than you thought you knew

And you're looking at the world

With brand new eyes

And no one can ever spoil the view

(Chorus)

Come on, and let it happen to you

Hey, hey, hey come on, and let it happen to you

You gotta open up your mind

And let everything come through

Open up your mind

Let everything come through
