Lyrics
This Side Of Love
Greg Shields/Bobby Rennert/Dave Colvin
Arnybarn Music (BMI)
VERSE 1 BEEN UP AND DOWN LIFE'S HIGHWAYS
SEARCHING FOR A PLACE TO REST MY HOMELESS HEART
BEEN GOING MONDAYS THROUGH SUNDAYS
LOOKIN' IN THE REARVIEW SEEING DREAMS ALL TORN APART MY FRIENDS ALL CLAIM IT'S TIME TO MAKE A CHANGE
THAT I'LL NEVER FIND MY WAY AS LONG AS I'M ON
CHORUS THIS SIDE OF LOVE - THEY SAY THAT I CAN FIND IT AT THE CROSS
BUT I ALWAYS TURN AWAY FROM THIS SIDE OF LOVE - WHEN I'VE SEEN EVERY MARKER
AND IT'S ONLY GETTING DARKER IF I STAY ON
THIS SIDE OF LOVE
VERSE 2 I TOOK A DIFFERENT DIRECTION
I HAD A NEW MAP THAT KEPT THE CROSS IN SIGHT
I BLEW THROUGH EVERY INTERSECTION
I JUST KEPT GOING TILL YOU HIT ME WITH THE BRIGHTS
THEN I LOST CONTROL TRIED TO KEEP IT THEN LET GO
I HAD A CHANGE OF SOUL NOW I FIND MYSELF ON
CHORUS THIS SIDE OF LOVE - THEY TOLD ME I COULD FIND IT AT THE CROSS
BUT I ALWAYS TURNED AWAY FROM THIS SIDE OF LOVE - I DON'T KNOW WHY I WAITED
LORD I KNOW THAT YOU CREATED ME TO BE ON
THIS SIDE OF LOVE - I KNOW THE ROAD GETS LONGER BUT I JUST KEEP GETTING STRONGER AS I STAY ON
THIS SIDE OF LOVE
BRIDGE I FOUND PEACE - I FOUND PURPOSE
I FOUND MERCY - I FOUND TRUTH
CHORUS THEY TOLD ME I COULD FIND IT AT THE CROSS
BUT I ALWAYS TURNED AWAY FROM THIS SIDE OF LOVE - I DON'T KNOW WHY I WAITED
LORD I KNOW THAT YOU CREATED ME TO BE ON
THIS SIDE OF LOVE - ON THIS SIDE OF LOVE - ON THIS SIDE OF LOVE I DON'T KNOW WHY I WAITED I'M CREATED FOR THIS SIDE OF LOVE
