The Other Side
Eternal Love and Waiting Beyond
Lyrics
What will one day
Contemplation on the future and destiny
Become of us?
Questioning the outcome or fate
We'll grow as grass under their feet
Symbolic growth, anonymity under others' influence
No one here will ever know your name
Anonymity and lack of recognition
And you still lie here next to me
Intimacy or connection despite anonymity
If it takes another life
Commitment to waiting, even across lifetimes
I'll wait for you
Pledge to wait for someone
On the other side
Hope for reunion or connection in an afterlife
Everything that comes to me as good
Positive experiences attributed to the person
Belongs to you
Ownership or dedication of positive outcomes to the person
I'll count our blessings
Reflecting on positive aspects in the relationship
As I wait for you
Continued waiting and anticipation
On the other side
Reiteration of waiting on the other side
Good luck and I will see you through
Wishing luck and support in absentia
Get used to this
Encouragement to adapt to circumstances
You're going to be alright
Assurance of eventual well-being
The world goes on with or without me
Recognition of the world's continuity
If I don't ever leave a thing behind
Possibly leaving no legacy, but emotional impact remains
I'll still leave you without me
The lasting impact on a personal level
If it takes another life
Repetition of commitment to wait across lifetimes
I'll wait for you
Reiteration of waiting for someone
On the other side
Hope for connection in an afterlife
Everything that comes to me as good
Attributing positive experiences to the person
Belongs to you
Ownership or dedication of positive outcomes
I'll count our blessings
Reflecting on shared blessings
As I wait for you
Continued waiting and reflection
On the other side
Reiteration of waiting on the other side
Good luck and I will see you through
Wishing luck and offering support
If it takes another life
Commitment to wait, echoing previous verses
I'll wait for you
Repetition of waiting for someone
On the other side
Hope for connection in an afterlife
Everything that comes to me as good
Attributing positive experiences to the person
Belongs to you
Ownership or dedication of positive outcomes
I'll count our blessings
Reflecting on shared blessings
As I wait for you
Continued waiting and reflection
On the other side
Reiteration of waiting on the other side
Good luck and I will see you through
Wishing luck and offering support
And I have a right to be in love
Asserting the right to be in love
And I have a right to be loved
Asserting the right to be loved
Don't be over the rainbow for me
Discouraging excessive expectations or fantasies
