The Other Side of Ecstasy

[Verse 1]
On the other side of ecstasy
Is another night of agony
And I cannot for the life of me
Imagine turning you down
Or you coming around

[Verse 2]
On the other side of ecstasy
Is rejection whispered tenderly
And I cannot wait to turn you on
And then turn myself off
The moment you're gone
To the other side of ecstasy
To the only place where we truly exist

[Verse 3]
On the other side of ecstasy
Is the opposite of fancy-free
And another guy as foolishly
Convinced you could be the one
As I had become

[Verse 4]
On the other side of ecstasy
There's another juicy part for me
I can't wait to sink my teeth into
All the scenery we'll chew
Until our play is through
To the other side of ecstasy
To the only place where we truly exist
Exist

[Verse 5]
On the other side of ecstasy
Is another broken heart or three
Is another boundless love affair
Is another level of despair
Is another ache, another song
Of sweet projections all gone wrong
Is another life you plunder through
And another other man onto
The other side of ecstasy
To the only place where you and me exist
Exist

[Verse 6]
On the other side of ecstasy
Is another love not meant to be
Still I cannot for the life of me
Imagine turning you down
In case you're coming around
For another night of ecstasy
For another night of ecstasy
