Lyrics
The Other Side
Hook
Thinkin bout the ways it could have been. Thinkin bout the times it would have been. But them days is over. Time to step over and walk on the other side.
(Stop) Thinkin bout the ways it could have been. (Better stop) Thinkin bout the times it would have been. But them days is over. Time to step over and walk on the other side.
Verse 1
Nobody likes more than me to reminisce of the days gone by. No worries, no worries, no complicated situations to bog me down. I always played it cool. The golden rule was to take my time and ride that wave into the shore, forever more. What a breeze, the camera snaps and I say cheese, on an island off Beleze. Baby please get me a mi tie while I lay here, a mani-pedi for my dear. What a beautiful day in this hemisphere, but that's all a dream now I've got to....

(Stop) Thinkin bout the ways it could have been. (Better stop) Thinkin bout the times it would have been. But them days is over. Time to step over and walk on the other side.
Bridge
I know it's time to wake up and realize that I've got to live in this new life. I tease myself that times aren't like they used to be. Smell the coffee. Slap me in the face and make me realize....
