Turned the Corner

I turned a corner

It didn't seem that was wrong

I was just having a laugh

But suddenly my friends are gone

And I didn't know that life would be so long

I turned the clock

And went around the block

Thought I was just having a laugh

But suddenly my world was gone

And I found myself standing alone

I thought I was fighting the ebb of life

I thought I was cutting the web and the strife

But I look at the mirror where there used to be a smile

Now I see a stranger
