0:15They say there was a fire on the night I died
0:21All I am is gone
0:25Still the soul goes on
0:29They tell me I'm a hero on the other side
0:35Oh but all that I remember
0:38Is the children were in danger
0:46On the other side
0:51Children laugh and sing
0:54On the other side
0:58Angels earn their wings
1:00On the other side
1:07On the other side
1:12They say that you were with me
1:14When the building fell
1:18Strange to have you near
1:22After all these years
1:26They say I couldn't possibly
1:27Have done it by myself
1:32Did you see our photograph
1:36As it crumbled into ash
1:44On the other side
1:48Children laugh and sing
1:51On the other side
1:55Angels earn their wings
1:58On the other side
2:05On the other side
2:13And I who never could believe
2:15Never saw the need
2:17Wanted just to see your face again
2:20With nothing to hold on to
2:22Now I've found you
2:29On the other side
2:33Children laugh and sing
2:36On the other side
2:40The angels earn their wings
2:43On the other side
2:50On the other side
2:57On the other side
They say there was a fire on the night I died All I am is gone Still the soul goes 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 Angels earn their wings On the other side On the other side They say that you were with me When the building fell Strange to have you near After all these years They say I couldn't possibly Have done it by myself Did you see our photograph As it crumbled into ash On the other side Children laugh and sing On the other side Angels earn their wings On the other side On the other side And I who never could believe Never saw the need Wanted just to see your face again With nothing to hold on to Now I've found you On the other side Children laugh and sing On the other side The angels earn their wings On the other side On the other side On the other side
