Lyrics

Push the Sky Away

I was riding, I was riding home
The sun, the sun, the sun was rising from the field
I got a feeling I just can't shake
I got a feeling that just won't go away
You've got to just keep on pushing it
Keep on pushing it
Push the sky away
And if your friends think that you should do it different
And if they think that you should do it the same
You've got to just keep on pushing it
Keep on pushing it
Push the sky away
And if you feel you got everything you came for
If you got everything and you don't want no more
You've got to just keep on pushing it
Keep on pushing it
Push the sky away
And some people say it's just rock and roll
Ah but it gets you right down to your soul
You've got to just keep on pushing it
Keep on pushing it
Push the sky away
You've got to just keep on pushing it
Keep on pushing it
Push the sky away
You've got to just keep on pushing it
Keep on pushing it
