Lyrics

Otherside

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Only wanted to get down when I'm feeling low

Only wanted to sit there when the signal is slow

Only wanted to sit down and fantasise

I wouldn't wanna be lying

Wouldn't wanna be lying to myself

You're a little bit lost in someone else

Oh you've been there walking by my side

Telling me to hang on

Think that's alright

I know

I'm coming from the Otherside

I know

I'm hidden but we don't live twice

I won't

Stand still and let this all go by

Don't talk

Come here and kiss me don't think twice

Baby there's a question that I've had on my lips

Are you paying attention don't be careless about this

I don't fit the file but it matters in my heart

I don't understand you, are you here to take my soul

Be he-hee the God blessed one that turns my spirit gold

I don't wanna chase something that's wrong so just let it be known

Even when I'm switched off the yearning carries on

And I don't wanna feel anything for anyone anymore

I know

I'm coming from the Otherside

I know

I'm hidden but we don't live twice

I won't

Stand still and let this all go by

Don't talk

Come here and kiss me don't think twice

Baby where you're hiding isn't really clear to me

I don't wanna divide it so let's add it carefully

Barely set the pace so I decided not to show

I don't feel better so what matters if I go

Baby I know that it's hardest to fight

When finding somebody that slips in your mind

I don't like it, I don't tell you

But deep down inside

I'm fighting my body

But please don't ask why

Don't wanna be on your mind

I prefer to get down

Than be livin' a lie

Elephants and

Don't wanna be on your mind

I'd prefer to get down

Than be livin' a lie

I'm afraid you got found

Is it real to deny

I've been thinking 'bout how

I can leave anytime

I've been thinking 'bout time

With the birds and the bees

I'm in wonderland

When will you finally see

Elephants and birds

Hanging round in the trees

Just look closer they're all looking at you and me

Elephants and birds

When you finally see

Elephants and birds

Hanging round in the trees
