The Other Side
They say when a man loves a woman
and she loves him back
The world is theirs for the taking
They say when a man loves a woman
and she loves him back
They'll get all things of which they were dreaming
They say when a man loves a woman
and she loves him back
As long as they both aren't faking
They say when a man loves a woman
and she loves him back
For them the world will always have meaning
But what happens when you're on the other side
The other side of the great divide
When all your dreams are of being left alone?
What happens when you can't stand the other sex?
What happens when you're on the other side?
On the outside
Perhaps a gentle touch could bring me out of despair
But the best I can hope for is a curious stare
Perhaps if I found love, I could love myself again
I know I should be hopeful, should be grateful to my friends
Perhaps my one true love is waiting around the bend
Perhaps, perhaps...
But it ain't gonna happen, is it.
