Around The Corner
Source unknown
Around the corner I have a friend, And I never see my old friend's face; And he rang mine. We were younger then&md; "Tomorrow," I say, "I will call on Jim, Around the corner!&md; And that's what we get&md; - Henson Towne
In this great city that has no end.
Yet days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it a year is gone,
For life is a swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him just as well
As in the days when I rang his bell
And now we are busy, tired men&md;
Tired with playing a foolish game;
Tired with trying to make a name.
Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes&md;and tomorrow goes;
And the distance between us grows and grows.
yet miles away...
"Here's a telegram, sir."
"Jim died today."
and deserve in the end&md;
Around the corner,
