The Other Side - Alessia Cara

In my room, staying up late
And I’m planning my escape
Cause I know I can’t stay
In my veins I got the feeling
Like there must be something more
I’ve never been so sure

All night and day
I dream of a place

Somewhere far, far away
Beyond the crowded city lives
I wanna open up my eyes
And see you on the other side

These streets aren’t easy
And I need your handle
So I’m not alone
And I hear all these voices
Know they try to slow me down
I can tune them out

All night and day
I dream of a place

Somewhere far, far away
Beyond the crowded city lives
Out of the darkness we can shine
So I’m packing my bags
I’m gonna leave it all behind
I wanna open up my eyes
And see you on the other side

Here it goes
I clear my thoughts
Cue the violins
Making moves
Shout it from the rooftops
I’m trying to live, yeah

Somewhere far, far away
Beyond the crowded city lives
Out of the darkness we can shine
Somewhere far, far away
Beyond the crowded city lives
Out of the darkness we can shine
So I’m packing my bags
I’m gonna leave it all behind
I wanna open up my eyes
And see you on the other side
