lyrics

Verse 1:

Melinda's got her mind made up
To head on down the line
The new wore off long ago
And the years have been unkind
She won't say what she's searching for
But she will say it's not me
Tonight out in this cheatin' world
She's actin' like she's free

Chorus:

'Cause what Melinda needs
Is a trip back in time
And what Melinda wants
Is the future she's left behind
I understand her need
To find her peace of mind
So if you see Melinda
Tell her she's still on my mind

Verse 2:

She was a young sweet thing of beauty
So innocent in her teens
We tied the knot and left her youth behind
In a maze of broken dreams
Our song of life never was in tune
And I guess she's blamin' me
I loved her then and I love her now
And it hurts to set her free

[Repeat Chorus]
