Around the Bend

Once I caught the vision, dream was deep inside
Somehow lost direction on this bumpy ride
Got a bowl of popcorn to keep me occupied
Tired of pretending that I'm satisfied

What looks like the end is changing road when you get there
Around that sharp bend is the view you haven't seen yet
If you stop short of your dream, you won't get to where you can see
Around the bend, just around the bend

Dragging all these worries, my "but" gets in the way
List of frazzled questions and wounds from yesterday
Help me claim the victory, fighting to revive
But I'm tired of being alone at night

What looks like the end is changing road when you get there
Around that sharp bend is the view you haven't seen yet
If you stop short of your dream, you won't get to where you can see
Around the bend, just around the bend

Around, around, around, around
Friends who do not understand
They try to keep you down with them
One climbs out, the crab effect
Don't go there, what's up with that?
Family they might mean well
Say work for retirement
I cannot wait I want to live
They fear you're falling off a cliff...

But what looks like the end is changing road when you get there
Around that sharp bend is the view you haven't seen yet
If you stop short of your dream, you won't get to where you can see
Around the bend

Don't give up! Don't you dare give up!
Tyler Perry Just said that
Thank you man, I needed it
You inspire me to live and keep going
Around the bend, just around the bend

shawna ray, today I found a sound I wrote in 2005. It has kept me going, and I can see everything I have been through as part of the process, while I still don't feel as if I will ever arrive.
