Lyrics - The Other Side v.2.26

Another major revision... Am I happy now?

I see you there, outside my door,
And hafta wonder,
what you're looking for,
My breath catches,
it’s been a while,
Your eyes have softened,
But it’s the same old smile.

So I slam the door.

I hear you callin' from the other side,
Stirrin' up mem'ries, that cut like knives,
Of the nights you cheated,
The times you strayed,
And the day, you walked away.

I'm sat here shaking, my phone in hand,
Why'd I listen? I Don't understand,
That blinking light, was a siren's call,
Your sweet voice - can't resist its pull.

But it's those same old lies,
In the words you sent,
Promises made, that you never meant,
Hot tears falling, until I'm spent.

We were never good, and I paid the price,
But I moved on, rebuilt my life,
I won't break, still got my pride,
So take your poison, and say,
Goodbye.

I heard you callin' from the other side,
Stirring up mem'ries, that cut like knives,
Of the nights you cheated,
The times you strayed,
And the day, you walked away.

You made me stumble, but I won't fall,
Didn’t know you could be so cruel,
Pretending I misunderstood,
But these wounds won’t heal-
just cause you say they should.

Might hear your whispers, on the breeze,
But I'm no longer on my knees,
I'm much stronger now,
I've found my path,
Made it through, in the aftermath,

I hear you callin' from the other side,
I couldn't hate you, oh how, I tried.
Said I didn't love you, and knew I lied,
It's bittersweet, but there's few regrets,
From my memories of a different life,
And the perfect ending, we didn't get.

I hear you callin' from the other side,
See you there and softly smile,
I'm stronger here, on the other side
I hear you calling, from the other side
And you can't,
Hurt me,
Anymore.
