Got a big leather suitcase
All I own's inside
Seems I've been walking for days
Can't even bum a ride
Try a-stepping to the tune
Of the rhythm of a walking man
My mind drifts like a big balloon
Got my situation at hand
(Chorus)
Ain't it funny how a melody
Can bring back a memory
Take you to another place and time
Completely change your state of mind
Walking down a lonely highway
Not feeling alone
Thinking back to when things went my way
And not the road I'm on
Well I've been down a time or two
But it never lasts long
I can always make it through
On a wing and a prayer and a song
(Repeat chorus)
It can make a right from a wrong
It can make you fall in love
It can leave you singing along
Chase the clouds away
And make the sun shine above
A melody can bring back a memory
Take you to another place and time
Completely change your state of mind
