The Other Side Of Town by August Premier Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well everyone here has got a mind of their own
I made a simple request over the telephone
The radio man's got something to say, it's alright
And over and over and over again
I made the same mistake about calling you a friend
And one of these days, I'm gonna get it right
[Pre-Chorus]
(Whoa) And all these people here
They're trying to be happy
(Whoa) And all these dreams are put to rest
Things seem so much better
[Chorus]
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper
And reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
[Verse 2]
The cage is locked, but you're trying to get out
You've been shut in, and now you're having some doubt
You should've made your break when you had the chance last night
And now you're stranded and feeling alone
And you're dreaming of ways to make it out on your own
Well don't give up, 'cause it's going to be alright
[Pre-Chorus]
(Whoa) And all these people here
They're trying to be happy
(Whoa) And all these dreams are put to rest
Things seem so much better
[Chorus]
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper
And reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Pre-Chorus]
(Whoa) Things seem so much better
When all these dreams are put to rest
[Chorus]
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper
And reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper
And reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
Well everyone here has got a mind of their own
I made a simple request over the telephone
The radio man's got something to say, it's alright
And over and over and over again
I made the same mistake about calling you a friend
And one of these days, I'm gonna get it right
[Pre-Chorus]
(Whoa) And all these people here
They're trying to be happy
(Whoa) And all these dreams are put to rest
Things seem so much better
[Chorus]
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper
And reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
[Verse 2]
The cage is locked, but you're trying to get out
You've been shut in, and now you're having some doubt
You should've made your break when you had the chance last night
And now you're stranded and feeling alone
And you're dreaming of ways to make it out on your own
Well don't give up, 'cause it's going to be alright
[Pre-Chorus]
(Whoa) And all these people here
They're trying to be happy
(Whoa) And all these dreams are put to rest
Things seem so much better
[Chorus]
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper
And reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Pre-Chorus]
(Whoa) Things seem so much better
When all these dreams are put to rest
[Chorus]
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper
And reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
The wishing wells get deeper
And reality breaks down
On the other side of town
We'll all be better off out there
On the other side of town
