Janis Ian - On The Other Side Lyrics
They say there was a fire on the night I died
All I am is gone
Still the soul goes on
They tell me I'm a hero on the other side
Oh, but all that I remember
On the other side
Children laugh and sing
On the other side
Angels earn their wings
On the other side
They say that you were with me
When the building fell
Strange to have you near
They say I couldn't possibly
Have done it by myself
Did you see our photograph
As it crumbled into ash?
On the other side
Children laugh and sing
On the other side
Angels earn their wings
On the other side
And I, who never could believe
Never saw the need
Wanted just to see your face again
With nothing to hold on to
Now I've found you...
On the other side
Children laugh and sing
On the other side
The angels earn their wings
On the other side
[Requiem:]
Vocatus atque non vocatus, deus aderit [seen and unseen, God is]
Sursum, Domini, sursum Domini [lift us Lord]
Ora pro nobis, in ora pro nobis pacem [let there be peace on earth]
Kyrie [Lord]
In ora Kyrie eleison [on earth, Lord, peace]
Kyrie [Lord]
...

Absolutely love this song! Ethereal vocals, evocative guitar chords. She's so fine.
She looks so tired...and, what's going on with her left eyebrow? No disrespect...she is beyond amazing as a songwriter, performer, and a stunningly beautiful woman...just wondering if that's what I saw...
