Winwood, Steve - Other Shore Lyrics

Thank you for a most enjoyable upload. I've seen Stevie Winwood live with Traffic a good 50 years ago at the Fillmore East in NYC. Great photos too.

This needs to be on Spotify!!!

😎👍🏿

I LUV THIS SONG SO MUCH BACK IN 2008 !!!

Other Shore
Steve Winwood

There'll be times at sunrise when my heart speaks your name
For you left with no warning but there's no one left to blame
All those days full of golden sun when you walked by my side
And everything that you gave to me can never be denied

[Chorus]
And sometimes the other shore is so far away
And that darker river's edge is too far away
And across the waterline is far away

On a new tomorrow cooling breeze shows a star
There can be so much sorrow, when you've traveled from afar
But there's nothing that can harm you when the night's closing in
In the bright lit heavens above us, you know we'll meet there again

[Chorus]

In the rush of our breathing there is always passing time
There is always somebody leaving, someone's always left behind
But something endures in the morning's blue light, I have you and you have me
And it'll be alright when the skies all clear, 'cause we're all born to be free

The other shore is so far way
And that darker river's edge is too far away
And across the waterline it's so far away
And sometimes the other shore is so far away
And across the river's edge is far away

Thanks for this awesome upload. Steve is absolutely one one of the most gifted entertainers in music. Wow, I saw those pictures ofRichard Bailey on the drums and Karl Vanden Bossche on percussion. Had to be an awesome night. Wished I had been there. Gifted Band up there....One of my fav songs ever.

Nice to see the lyrics I wrote for this highlighted here... I'm quite proud of them.. Of course Steve's amazing soulful voice makes the most of every word.. Was such an honour to write the "Nine Lives" album with Mr Winwood.. I just heard he played Fly, At Times we Do Forget and Dirty City at his concert last night in New York.. Quite a thrill just to know that.. :)

Super cool. This is one of the finest cuts in his storied career, so well done!

this song does it for me every time i hear it.
LOVE IT!

@CatOnAHotPC1 Glad you liked them.... I kept the flash off , so didnt distract, but Steve knew he was being photographed, was a brilliant concert...

@LeftyPlaysRighty yep I was lucky enough to be on the front row

Ahhhh, Chris, thanks so much for adding this. I listen to Steve all the time but your photos really brought back some GREAT memories for me. We saw him do the entire CD in 2008 as well but we're over here literally on the ''other shore" (lol)! It was 6-19-2008 in Atlantic City, New Jersey, US. Pictures weren't allowed (but I was able to sneak in two!) It was a wonderful night here too. Thanks for sharing! :-)

Glad you liked them was a brilliant night...we were lucky enough to get front row....Hope you enjoyed visting "tha toon"...'tis a great City

final song on a very special album. steve sure has put together so many masterpeaces. each time i think he's said/done it all a few years later he does it again. significantly. so many fine surprises. thanks

Very great pictures from the Gig of Steve Winwood
