lyrics

The Other Side
© 2021 Carolyn Shulman

Wish I could stop my mind
Running on overdrive
Wipe my memory clean
And start again, start again

You’d get the best of me
Maybe that’s all there’d be
No need to seek advice
No thinkin’ twice; no thinkin’ twice

But that’s not the world we live in
There’s no boat to paradise
So I guess I’ll just try swimming
'Til I reach the other side
The other side

This life won’t lead itself
Stuffed in a box on a shelf
Collecting dust and killing time
Waiting for some sign, some sign

And that’s just the world we live in
There’s no boat to paradise
So I know I must try swimming
'Til I reach the other side

This time is all we have
And our days are flying fast
But I’m paralyzed upon the same old path
And all these choices feel the same
So I cannot find my way
And my broken compass cannot lead me back

Wish I could sail through the years
To some future bright and clear
No rocks upon that shore
Find what I’m looking for

But that’s not the world we live in
There’s no boat to paradise
So I’ve got to keep on swimming
'Til I reach the other side
The other side
’Til I reach the other side
The other side
