Brendan James - The Other Side lyrics

rate me

I was a child once

The fear of the world in my eyes

Far from the safety of the other side

I colored by numbers

learned how to tie my own shoes

Like all the others

I was just

Afraid I'd make it thru

(chorus)

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 walkin' out

but understand it made me stronger now

and so satisfied

and so full of pride

thank you

here from

from the other side

oh oh oh oh

oh oh oh oh

I'll always remember the kids that I mean they've been

11 yrs old and I could

could not fit in

but I made it through high school

and college according to plan

the pressure was never greater to become a man

would I become a man?

(chorus)

mother look how your boy turned out..

300 miles from that small town

daddy it hurt to watch u walkin' out

hear the piano do the cryin' out

for all the preachers and the teachers now

for all the ones who never let me down

so satisfied

so full of pride

standing here on

on the other side

thank you here from

from the other side

here on the other side

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
