On The Other Side
|
(Janis Ian)
|
|
THEY SAY THERE WAS A FIRE ON THE NIGHT I DIED
|
ALL I AM IS GONE
|
STILL THE SOUL GOES ON
|
THEY TELL ME I'M A HERO ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
OH BUT ALL THAT I REMEMBER
|
IS THE CHILDREN WERE IN DANGER
|
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
CHILDREN LAUGH AND SING
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
ANGELS EARN THEIR WINGS
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
|
THEY SAY THAT YOU WERE WITH ME
|
WHEN THE BUILDING FELL
|
STRANGE TO HAVE YOU NEAR
|
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
|
THEY SAY I COULDN'T POSSIBLY
|
HAVE DONE IT BY MYSELF
|
DID YOU SEE OUR PHOTOGRAPH
|
AS IT CRUMBLED INTO ASH
|
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
CHILDREN LAUGH AND SING
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
ANGELS EARN THEIR WINGS
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
|
AND I, WHO NEVER COULD BELIEVE
|
NEVER SAW THE NEED
|
WANTED JUST TO SEE YOUR FACE AGAIN
|
WITH NOTHING TO HOLD ON TO
|
NOW I'VE FINALLY FOUND YOU
|
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
CHILDREN LAUGH AND SING
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
ANGELS EARN THEIR WINGS
|
ON THE OTHER SIDE
|
