Backstory:

The usual way.  Putting together jazzy chords in an interesting way.  The melody follows that. I was thinking of the romantic undertone of the film "Bram Stoker's Dracula" [with Gary Oldman] for the lyric.  Everything seemed to fit.

“MIRACLE ‘ROUND THE BEND” 		 

WELL THE FIRST TIME THAT I SAW YOU 
THOUGH WE HAD NEVER EVER MET 
I KNEW SOMEHOW I WAS WITH YOU  
AND THAT FATE WOULD DO THE REST 
COULD IT BE I WAS DREAMIN’ 
NO, ‘CAUSE IT FELT LIKE SO MUCH MORE 
LIKE THE WORLD COULD FORGET US 
BUT IT’S THE WORLD WE’D IGNORE 

OH HOW YOU MADE IT SO EASY TO BEGIN 
NEVER MADE ME WONDER WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN 
FROM THE MOMENT WHEN YOU FIRST REACHED OUT FOR MY?HAND  
YOU WERE MY MIRACLE 'ROUND THE BEND … 'ROUND THE BEND 

SEEMS I’VE CROSSED THE OCEANS OF TIME 
DESTINED TO WANDER SPACE AND SHADOW, BUT OH 
SOMEHOW YOU REACHED-OUT FOR ME  
AND YOU TUGGED AT MY GYPSY SOUL 

BUT IT WAS YOU THAT CAST THE SPELL       
PULLED ME DEEP LIKE THE UNDERTOE  
WHEN FEELINGS TOUCH THERE IS NO ESCAPE 
YOU CAUGHT A FEELING THAT WON’T LET GO 

?OH HOW YOU MADE IT SO EASY TO BEGIN 
NEVER MADE ME WONDER WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN 
FROM THE MOMENT WHEN YOU FIRST REACHED OUT FOR MY?HAND  
YOU WERE MY MIRACLE 'ROUND THE BEND … 'ROUND THE BEND 

FOUND WHAT I WASN’T LOOKING FOR 
NO MORE NEED TO PRETEND  
NOW EACH NIGHT I WAIT FOR THE SUN IN YOUR ARMS 
TO FEEL THE POWER OF YOUR SWEET LOVE, AGAIN AND AGAIN … 

Guitar solo … 

 … YEAH IT WAS YOU THAT CAST THE SPELL       
PULLED ME DEEP LIKE THE UNDERTOE  
WHEN FEELINGS TOUCH THERE IS NO ESCAPE 
YOU CAUGHT A FEELING THAT WON’T LET GO 

OH HOW YOU MADE IT SO EASY TO BEGIN 
NEVER MADE ME WONDER WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN 
FROM THE MOMENT WHEN YOU FIRST REACHED OUT FOR MY?HAND  
YOU WERE MY MIRACLE 'ROUND THE BEND?… 'ROUND THE BEND
