“Just around the corner”

Written by Tim Britt   



Looking for something

  What do you call it?


A little piece of something

   You search for …


That smile on a rose

  The laughter of a cloud


The singing of the rain

  Laughing all around


Dancing of the dirt

  In smiling rain




Looking for something

  You don’t know what to say


Looking for things

   Before they flow away


Looking for the song of the raindrops

  The dancing of the dirt


The feeling of the flowers

  Running through my shirt


Where is it going?

  How long will it stay?


Looking for rainbows

  Under the sun


Looking for the gold at the end

  To share with everyone




But there is a time

  When the rain doesn’t fall


Sun doesn't shine

  Not lucky at all


You keep wondering

   Was it all in the past?


Or just around the corner

  And you run up to it fast




And then you see the wind

  Dancing in the sunshine


And you see the rainbow smiling

  Wondering waiting for you to play this time


It’s all there waiting for you

  Just waiting for you to run to it


Wondering why

   You didn't come sooner


We wait for it

 It waits for us


We wait for it

  It waits for us


When we finally say

   Where have you been?


They say we are waiting right here

  Waiting just around the corner


You can run to the corner

  To see what around it


Let it smile let is sing

  Dance with rain


Sing with the sun

  Smile with the clouds

It's waiting for you!
