“The Other Side is a song that took a really long time to write. The message and the direction of the song were really clear to start with, and at the end as well, but I guess it went through a lot of transformations and that was kind of true to the time as well – that the song runs through a timeli...
[Verse 1]
I was back in high school when
We were talking late from 10
Staying up till 3 AM
Just friends
You didn't have your license yet
We would lie under sunsets
Without a single worry yet
Just friends
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And you would let me cut your hair
I thought about you everywhere
I haven't been the same since then
Just friends
[Chorus]
'Cause every time I ran
I ran to you
I meant it every time I said I loved you
I kiss the thought of you and I
I still regret the day that we said goodbye
And do you think of me at night?
I still wish we could've made it right
But we can't say that we never tried
I guess everything seems more clear
Here on the other side
[Verse 2]
I left you at the station where
I would cry and watch you stare
Out the window as you left
Just friends
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I called you from a payphone line
Out of the country but I'm fine
I just miss you all the time
Just friends
[Chorus]
'Cause every time I ran
I ran to you
I meant it every time I said I loved you
I kiss the thought of you and I
I still regret the day that we said goodbye
And do you think of me at night?
I still wish we could've made it right
But we can't say that we never tried
I guess everything seems more clear
Here on the other side
Here on the other side
[Bridge]
And there are so many things
I wanted to say
But I was a mess
And you moved away
And I think of all the times that you were right
I wish I could explain
[Chorus]
'Cause every time I ran
I ran to you
I meant it every time I said I loved you
I kiss the thought of you and I
I still regret the day that we said goodbye
And do you think of me at night?
I still wish we could've made it right
You can't say that I never tried
You can't say that I never tried
[Chorus]
'Cause every time I ran
I ran to you
I meant it every time I said I loved you
I kiss the thought of you and I
I still regret the day that we said goodbye
And do you think of me at night?
I still wish we could've made it right
We can't say that we never tried
I guess everything seems more clear
Here on the other side
[Outro]
And if you're wondering I'm great
I'm stronger now but still the same
My love for you it will remain
My friend
