THE BEND - KYLE LEDSON

Well I'm waiting on the first snow

For winter’s coming back

The page I'll clear in the coming year

As I approach the railroad tracks

Well I stood on by for too long

Until it tore me down

And the pain I felt was tenfold

When you threw me to the ground

Now I board the train in Houston

coming up to Maine

Anywhere that’s far from where you caused me all this pain

And as the train is rolling ‘round the bend

I can see the sun come out again

Well I can breath in clearly now

And take in all the breeze

The fog that covered up this town

Has fallen to its knees

And as I think and ponder of the

things that you have done

It gives me all the reason

To give up this life and run

Now I board the train in Camden

And I’m a-going to Kentucky

Running from the law out here, I guess I’m pretty lucky

And as the train is rolling round the bend

I can see the sun come out again

I was sleeping with the only leisure time I had to spend

And they caught up to me and told me that my journey had to end

Well but the Ohio was flowing right behind my feet

And I jumped right in to save myself from where I had to be

Now I’m flowing down the Ohio with a sheriff on my back

And I’m hopping on the next train that’s a-riding along the track

And as my body’s flowing round the bend

I can see the sun, oh

I can see the sun come out again

See the sun come out again
