Pack a Bag for Nowhere

Lyrics

Got a feeling in my sneakers
Got a map I never read
Got a bus pass and a sandwich
And a song stuck in my head
Nothing's wrong, but nothing's right
It's just the weather in my feet
So I'll pack a bag for nowhere
And I'll walk down to the street

Pack a bag for nowhere
Take the long way round
We'll go where the road goes humming
And the tired clouds come down
Pack a bag for nowhere
Sing along with me
We don't need a destination
Just a friend and a melody

Past the bakery at morning
Past the bus stop and the park
Past the old school gates still open
Past the fountain in the dark
Somebody's playing a radio
Somebody's hanging out the wash
Every street's a small adventure
When you're sure you've got the dosh

Pack a bag for nowhere
Take the long way round
We'll go where the road goes humming
And the tired clouds come down
Pack a bag for nowhere
Sing along with me
We don't need a destination
Just a friend and a melody

And if we turn back by sundown
That's an adventure too
Every road is a circle
That brings us home to you
Restless is just hopeful
With nowhere yet to be
So come on, grab your jacket
And walk along with me

Pack a bag for nowhere
Take the long way round
We'll go where the road goes humming
And the tired clouds come down
Pack a bag for nowhere
Sing along with me
We don't need a destination
Just a friend and a melody

Nowhere, nowhere
Sing along with me
