Half empty suitcase
Or is it half full
It all depends on your perspective
Doesn't matter much anyway
And needless to say
You'd better try to travel light
So take one step ahead
Travel light and don't look back
Leave your past behind
Forgive, but don't forget
Step off the beaten track
Choose the side roads
Watch your step
There's nothing left to hide
I'll stay right by your side
It won't take much to travel light
We've left a lot of things at home
Sometimes home means
Not at home at all
Some uncharted territory
Yet any crowded place
Just some whistlestops from here
Tell me brother where are you bound
So take one step ahead
Travel light and don't look back
Leave your past behind
Forgive, but don't forget
Step off the beaten track
Choose the side roads
Watch your step
There's nothing left to hide
I'll stay right by your side
It won't take much to travel light
Some run for their lives
Some stumble and fall
Some will lose their way in the rain
Some live for the day
Some waste it all away
Some will never ever learn
Some won't even shed a tear in all their lives
While some just try to travel light
So take one step ahead
Travel light and don't look back
Leave your past behind
Forgive, but don't forget
Step off the beaten track
Choose the side roads
Watch your step
There's nothing left to hide
I'll stay right by your side
It won't take much to travel light
Half empty suitcase
Or is it half full
It all depends on your perspective
