The Other Side |
| I was a child once, the fear of the world in my eye |
| Far from the safety of the other side |
| I colored by numbers, learned how to tie my own shoes |
| Like all of the others I just prayed I’d make it through |
| Prayed I would make it through |
| Oh Mother, look how your boy turned out 300 miles from that small town |
| You never stopped believing |
| Oh Daddy, it hurt to watch you walking out, but understand it made me stronger |
| now |
| And so satisfied, so full of pride, thank you here from the other side |
| I’ll always remember, the kids and how mean they’d been |
| Eleven years old and I could not fit in |
| But I made it through high school and college according to plan |
| Where pressure was never greater to become a man |
| Would I become a man |
| Oh mother… |
| Mother look how your boy turned out 300 miles from that small town |
| And Dad it hurt to watch you walking out, hear the piano do the crying now |
| For all the preachers and the teachers now, for all the ones who never let me |
| down |
| I’m so satisfied, so full of pride, standing here on the other side, |
| thank you here from the other side |
| Outro: |
| Here on the other side I’m taking my time |
| There’s nothing to fear, there’s nothing to worry about on the other side |
| I remember when I thought I’d never find |
| The other side |
