When he was six, he believed that the moon overhead followed him By nine, he deciphered the illusion, trading magic for fact, no trade-backs So this is what it's like to be an adult? If he only knew now what he knew then I'm open (2X) Come in (4X) I'm open (2X) Come in (4X) Lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no covers He decides to dream...Dream up a new self...For himself AROUND THE BEND --------------- I am wishing you a well Mind at peace within yourself Covers up, I cast you off I'll be watchin' as you breathe I lie still, you move, I send you off around the bend I hold you deep in my arms My fingertips, they close your eyes Off you dream my little child There's a sun around the bend (2X) All the evenings close like this All these moments that I've missed Please forgive me, won't you dear Please forgive and let me share With you around the bend You're an angel when you sleep How I want your soul to keep On and on around the bend
