Lyrics
ON THE OTHER SIDE
Seasons come, where do they go?
First the sun and then the snow.
Why is it so hard letting go?
Will I feel you on the other side?
Journey well, my dear old friend -
Feel my love right through the end.
There's a light around the bend
Where I'll see you on the other side.
The moments just after sunrise
When the day is fresh and new -
I think of you
And that's all I want to do.
You were here, and now you're gone
Leaving me to carry on.
Some days I just can't go on
Then I feel you on the other side.
A butterfly at my window
Or I hear our favorite song -
I sing along
With the feel of you so strong.
Seasons come, where do they go?
First the sun and then the snow.
Though it's still so hard letting go
I can feel you on the other side
Oh, yes I feel you on the other side
Oh, how I feel you on the other side.
