Around the Bend

Verse 1 I gave you all I had, every beat of my heart, But you left me here alone, torn apart. I’ve been pickin’ up the pieces, tryin’ to mend, But this heart of mine, it just won’t bend. Every night I lie awake, wishin’ you were here, But all I find is emptiness and fear. Chorus Oh, I’m singin’ for the love that never came, For the dream that died and left the pain. But deep down inside, I know, my friend, True love is waitin’, just around the bend. I’ll keep walkin’ this lonely road, With a heart that’s heavy, but a spirit bold. Verse 2 I’ve seen the sun rise on a thousand lonely days, And I’ve felt the cold when the love fades away. But somewhere in the distance, I hear a song, It’s whisperin’ that it won’t be long. Maybe tomorrow, or the day after that, I’ll find the love that’ll put me back on track. Chorus Oh, I’m singin’ for the love that never came, For the dream that died and left the pain. But deep down inside, I know, my friend, True love is waitin’, just around the bend. I’ll keep walkin’ this lonely road, With a heart that’s heavy, but a spirit bold. Bridge I’ve held on to memories, like shadows on the wall, But it’s time to let go, time to heed the call. There’s a light in the darkness, a hand to hold, I can feel it now, it’s warm, it’s gold. So I’ll keep on searchin’, I won’t lose faith, ‘Cause somewhere out there, love’s gonna take its place. Chorus Oh, I’m singin’ for the love that never came, For the dream that died and left the pain. But deep down inside, I know, my friend, True love is waitin’, just around the bend. I’ll keep walkin’ this lonely road, With a heart that’s heavy, but a spirit bold. Outro So here I stand, with a heart unmended, But my journey of love ain’t nearly ended. With every step, I’m closer to the end, Where true love waits, just around the bend.
