Yes, Lynn that is an excellent example of what I was talking about. Also in that song there is the most incredible descent near the end where the line is "godspeed your love.....to...me". The line begins on the 2 on "god-", drops to the root note on "-speed", steps down to the fifth in the octave below, then to the third in the lower octave on "love" then he leaps to a 2 back in the upper octave on the word "to" and extends the word to go 2-3-2-3-5--6, then 3-2-1 on "me". Wow, that song has it in spades! That melody is totally unforgetable!
