Lyrics From Michael TroyBack>>

Roller Coaster

1. Twenty years ago
Life seemed so easy
We didn't have to try
Nothing but blue skies

Cruisin' with the radio
No particular place to go
You were my best friend
When did that all end?

Chorus A

It isn't how it's supposed to be
Living on a rollercoaster
The valley's too low and the hill's too steep
It isn't how it's supposed to be

I don't want to fly
I just want some peace
I don't want a war
I just want relief
I can't right what's wrong
I'll just say so long

2. In the shadow of your frustration
Living up to your expectations
I can't do nothing right
All we do is fight

Stamping feet, slamming doors
Daily battles without a cause
We had more time to listen
When we didn't have a tent to live in

Chorus B

It isn't how it's supposed to be
Living on a rollercoaster
The valley's too low and the hill's too steep
It isn't how it's supposed to be

I don't cry no more
I got nothing to lose
I can't seem to win
I just want a truce
I can't right what's wrong
I'll just say so long

Chorus A

3. Am I just company
For you and your misery
Or it is just a cover
Now do you have a lover?

Don't think I haven't tried
Shoveling sand into the tide
Heartbreak hill is all
Hot damn I've hit the wall

Chorus B


"You'll never live your dreams if you don't take a chance, and let the chips fall where they may".
