When I get on the other side, gonna watch my mouth
When I get on the other side, ain’t gonna scream and shout
I wont forget the darkness, the evil words I hung around
When I get on the other side, gonna watch my mouth
When I get on the other side, gonna learn to twirl
When I get on the other side, two steps and a whirl
I won’t go to the sidelines or that broken hearted girl
When I get on the other side, gonna learn to twirl
I can change, oh I can change
I get on the other side where I can change
When I get on the other side, gonna try to see
When I get on the other side, and they’re different than me
I wont stand in the doorway, let them live their destiny
When I get on the other side, gonna learn to see
When I get on the other side, start to share
When I get on the other side, I learned it once somewhere
Gonna reach back through my childhood, find it rotting there
When I get on the other side, gonna start to share
I can change, oh I can change
I get on the other side where I can change
When I get on the other side, I hope there's you
When I get on the other side, I hope there's you
The only constant I remember, a rock that rang out true
When I get on the other side, I hope there's you
I can change, oh I can change
I get on the other side where I can change
I can change, oh I can change
I get on the other side where I can change
