The Other Side of Life Lyrics

[Verse 1]
But as you go to find yourself
Don't look too hard
You may pass yourself by
Reachin’ too high
Wantin' the other side of life

[Verse 2]
And as you go to take your place
Don't go too fast
Just pretend that there’s no end
Make yourself last
'Til the other side of life

[Bridge]
One day you'll find
Your restless searchin' at an end
You'll think the world has changed
But it's just you, my friend

[Verse 3]
So, as you go to please your heart
Please take your time
Someone's waitin' there, too
Waitin’ for you
On the other side of life
[Outro]
Waitin’ for you
On the other side of life

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
