Around The Corner (The Comfort Song)

Per Gessle


Hold a candle to your heart
Let the shadows on your face
Rock you gently with their grace
It’s been a long and lonely day
I don’t know what you’ve been through
You have to continue to care about you
Things have to end to start anew
No one can change those rules

In the dark
The earth keeps on turning
Craving for some morning light
It takes the back roads
Fools the night
It knows the Sun is burning
Somewhere around the corner
Around the corner

Do get some rest, you need it bad
Sometimes the laughter just makes you sad
Sometimes the joy can make you so scared
It’s been a long and lonesome day
I can’t tell what you’ve been through
But I won’t ever stop telling you
Some things have to go to start anew
I know it, I’ve been there too

In the dark
The earth keeps on turning
Longing for the morning light
It takes the back roads
And fools the night
It knows the Sun is shining
Somewhere around the corner
Around the corner

In the dark
The earth keeps on turning
Craving for some morning light
It takes the back roads
And fools the night
It knows the Sun is burning
Somewhere around the corner
Around the corner

Around the corner
