Just Around the Corner

Things aren't quite as they seem

inside my domain

You can't know about everything

only pleasure and pain.

You wonder why I come here

with head to my hands

Where else can I be cured

and the king of your

mansion?

A thorn in your side

and a child to protect

that claims he's free.

Just around the corner

half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

starved for some affection.

Darling come quickly

come ease my mind

For my prayers have not been answered

in a long time.

I've already made my bed

like it or not

As long as there's no regrets

I'll be here

when the ride stops.

These comforts to me and

these crosses to bare

with which we live.

Just around the corner

half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

starved for some affection.

Baby

I can't drag you into this mess!

I'm the thorn in your side and

the child to protect.

Just around the corner

half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

starved for some affection.

Darling come quickly

come ease my worried mind

For my prayers have not been

answered in a long time.

Just around the corner

Strong enough to hold you

half a mile to heaven

Just around the corner.
