Brendan James - The Other Side
卜超 制作
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
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
Thank you here from the other side
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
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
