Thread Name: Lyr Req: Around the Corner
Subject: Around the Corner
I would like the words to the poem, "Around the Corner" It starts:

Around the corner I have a friend,
In this city that has no end.

Some other words:

I tell myself I'll call on Jim,
Just to let him know that I'm thinking of him,
But another day comes and another day goes,
And the distance between us grows and grows,
Around the corner yet miles away:
Jim died today!

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am wanting to use this poem, in the jacket page of a CD I am planning to burn, it honor of my wise, but neglected grandmother. It is a great testimonial, to the foolish and reckless way men live their self-centered egotistical lives until death, when of coarse they discover too late the REAL meaning of life: to love God with all your heart, and to love your neighbor as yourself!
