Around the Bend/Stone's Throw

Do you remember when it started?
Listening to Dreamland
Shifting with my left hand to keep our fingers intertwined
We were so innocent
Nothing could touch us then
Little did we know around the bend life was waiting to break our hearts

Do you remember that summer?
Driving down 17
Marianne's Ice Cream dripping down your wrist
We were so happy then
Thought that feeling would never end
Little did we know around the bend life was waiting to tear us apart
Don't leave me in the dark

She said, "Let me off this ride- the highs are too high, the lows are too low"
She said, "I swear I tried"
We were so close
Just a stone's throw away

Twist the knife
Watch my insides spill on the floor
Let me bleed a little more, 'til I lose sight of the shore

It's no surprise
We favor surface to the core
Empty cups no longer pour

And I can't see a way around this
The look on your face, so astounded
Like being struck by lightning while not grounded

She said, "Let me off this ride- the highs are too high, the lows are too low"
She said, "I swear I tried"
We were so close
Just a stone's throw away

And if this is the end, just know I'll always love you
Til Heaven pulls me in, I swear I'll always love you
