Pearl Jam - Around The Bend Lyrics
i'm wishing you a-well
mind at peace within your cell
covers up, i cast you off
i'll be watching as you breathe
i lie still, you move
i hold your head deep in my arms
my fingertips they close your eyes
off you dream, my little child
there's a sun around the bend (yes)
there's a sun around the bend
all the evenings close like this
all these moments that i've missed
please forgive me, won't you, dear?
please forgive and let me share...
with you around the bend
how i want your soul to keep
on and on around the bend

Lyrics
I am wishing
You a well
Mind at peace
Within your cell
Covers up,
I cast you off
I'll be watching
As you breathe
I lie still,
You move,
I send
You,... off
Around the bend
I hold your head
Deep in my arms
My fingertips they
Close your eyes
Off you dream,
My little child
There's a sun
Around the bend
There's a sun
Around the bend
All the evenings
Close like this
All these moments
That I've missed
Please forgive me,
Won't you,
Dear?
Please forgive and
Let me share...
With... you...
Around the bend
You're an angel
When you sleep
How I want your
Soul to keep
On and on
Around the bend
Probably one of my favs. What a peaceful feel. Just kick back and have a few brews, smoke a spliff and look at a nice sunset to this song/. Life becomes worth living again.
I had a friend suicide around this time. Ths song always reminds me of him. I hope he found peace.
When I listen to this song I always think of all the innocent or unjust people who are incarcerated for life for simple non-violent marijuana crimes
Thanks poppa, I’ll never get through this one without tears...
This song remembers me just old league of legends when me and my friends playing for fun than ranked games ruins everything
Perfect.
finally made descision 2 end relationship w/ ex gf yrs ago. no explanation necessary simply told her I was heading 1 way while she was going in another direction... brought solace & was able 2 part ways on positive note- perhaps wed meet somewhere around the bend... never happened & I personally think this was best 4 both of us
"How I want your soul to keep" such haunting lyrics for a lullaby...sounds like a song about an obsessed person
its from a common children's prayer "now i lay me down to sleep, i pray the lord my soul to keep...."
Chris Levandofsky due. With all due respect. And no, he did not miss the point, it's haunting.
Saca Rolhas thank you!!!
Chris Levandofsky no I didn't, the last the line is literally about someone watching someone else sleep and wanting their soul to keep
maybe read the following sentence?... to keep on going, he is saying he wishes the child would live forever, avoid danger around the bend, etc.
eu não conhecia esse disco... e não gostei... depressivo demais... So sad.
So many years that I heard this album...
And it´s like just yesterday! I can remember every single chord and note... this feeling; this sound!
Does anyone else get a Christmas-y vibe from the initial guitar?
omg :'(
amazing song
PEARL JAM my favorite band ever
Such an underrated Pearl Jam song. This was always my favorite track from the "No Code" album.
'Smile' for me!
Thanks for posting all the tracks to this album with the lyrics. I don't believe the CD came with lyrics.. we had 5 of them floating around lol everyone had a copy plus an extra because we thought we lost it. Tons of memories listing to this CD on repeat :D
'Around the Bend' was written by Eddie Vedder as a lullaby that Jack Irons could sing to his son.
+Olivavu Eddie also said that the song could go the other way, it could be something that a serial killer is saying to his victim LOL
EddieVedderForEVer Sometimes Dad works late, only gets to see his kids when their already asleep
It's a lullaby
No code is such an amazing album from start to finish. Each track changes in mood and feeling. This song is a nice and serene , the perfect way to end the album.
