lyrics

Come around the bend,
Come again, come again, come again.
'Cause I've tried, and I've tried, and I've tried to see,
But I never seem to comprehend.
And of all the places I've been,
All the faces that I've seen,
And the children who play, and they play, and they play,
And they always seem to find their way.

And what have I done?
What have I become?
Did I really jump the gun,
Just like everyone?
And what could I have been?
Had I only stopped to see,
The forest through the trees.

Come around the bend,
Come again, come again, come again.
'Cause I've tried, and I've tried, and I've tried to see,
But I never seem to comprehend.
And of all the places I've been,
All the faces that I've seen,
And the children who play, and they play, and they play,
And they always seem to find their way.

Oh, help me find my way.
Help me find my way.
Help me find my way.
Find my way,
Help me find my way,
Help me find my way.
Find my way.

And what have I done?
What have I become?
Did I really jump the gun,
Just like everyone?
And what could I have been?
Had I only stopped to see,
The forest through the trees.
