Janis Ian On The Other Side
[Spoken:]
That's why this song needed to be written, and this is
how it goes:
[Sung:]
They say there was a fire on the night it died.
All I am is gone, still the soul holds on.
They tell me I'm a hero on the other side.
Oh, but all that I remember is the children were in
danger,
On the other side.
Children laugh and sing on the other side.
The angels earn their wings on the other side (side,
side).
On the other side.
They tell me you were with me when the building fell.
Strange to have you near after all these years.
You say I couldn't possibly have done it by myself.
Did you see our photgraphs, as they crumbled into ash?
On the other side.
Children laugh and sing on the other side.
The angels earn their wings on the other side (side,
side).
On the other side (side, side).
And I, who never could believe, never saw the need,
Wanted just to see your face again.
Had nothing to hold on to. Now I found you.
On the other side.
Children laugh and sing on the other side.
The angels earn their wings on the other side (side,
side).
On the other side (side, side).
On the other side.
Dona nobis pacem
Dona nobis pacem
Dona nobis pacem (give us peace)
Kyrie
Kyrie (Lord)
