Jackie DeShannon - The Other Side of Me

Текст песни

You think you know me pretty well
But how can you tell?
You never get inside my head
The times we talk we never speak
We play hide and seek
So many things are left unsaid
Why can’t you see
What’s on the other side of me
The side of me
That reaches out to you?
Sweet thoughts and dreams
Like drops of rain on rippling streams
That wind and bend
Rivers with no end
Flowing on the other side of me
It seems I always get unstrung
I trip on my tongue
With words that come out something else
I’m so afraid the things I say
Might chase you away
I have to hide behind myself
Why can’t you see
What’s on the other side of me
The side of me
That reaches out to you?
Sweet thoughts and dreams
Like drops of rain on rippling streams
That wind and bend
Rivers with no end
Flowing on the other side of me
Why can’t you see
What’s on the other side of me
The side of me
That reaches out to you?
Oh, don’t let me hide
The feelings that I’ve been denied
