Corners And Bends



Just around the corner
Just around the bend
There may be forever, there may be an end

Just around the corner
Just around the bend
There may be mixture, there may be blend

Just around the corner
Just around the bend
There may be honesty, there may be pretend

Just around the corner
Just around the bend
There may be fashion, there may be trend

Just around the corner
Just around the bend
There may be a fracture, there may be a mend

Just around the corner
Just around the bend
There may be honesty, there may be pretend

Just around the corner
Just around the bend
There may be a hater, there may be a friend
