Songtexte This Side Of The Sun in Don Williams

This Side Of The Sun
This Side Of The Sun

I thought I'd be an angel and fly on astral skies
I thought I'd wear a fanciful disguise
And it's taken me a lotta time to find out I'm not one
An outlaw on the run on this side of the sun

I hoped I'd be a champion and live without a care
I thought I'd change the world make it just and fair
But my youth slipped by before my eyes much to my surprise
Before I had begun on this side of the sun

Out on this end of the wind winter's coming round the bend
You pray for rain before you know you're standing in a foot of snow
So you pull your coat up to your chin pick your shovel up again
Cause your work is never done on this side of the sun

I took it to a fortune teller I thought that she might help me
She looked into my eyes and smiled mysteriously
But she didn't know as much as me I stared back dejectedly
Cause I know where she's from this side of the sun

Out behind these prison walls dark clouds come and hard rains fall
You pause a moment for a dream they row you gently down the stream
You wake up angry in the night jump up ready for a fight
But the war is never won on this side of the sun

Now they tell me music can free a person's soul
So I sing a song everywhere I go
But it's not much different than before
I'm still looking for the door
I wonder if there is one on this side of the sun
