Other Side of the World

For the first time
In my life
I wouldn't die for you
I took your advice
Even despite
The fact I'm mad at you
Now every time
I have a good time
I do it in spite of you
You're still in my mind
I cannot deny
I won't lie to you

I'm upside down
Please let go
I'm on, the other side of the world
Minor chord
Even so
I'm happy, you're out on your own in the world

Things keep changin'
But it mostly feels the same
And I wrote this song for you
'Cause I can never face this- no
There'll be no replacing you
But life keeps moving on
If you never come back home
I wish you luck, I wish you luck
And I thought 'bout callin' you
But I don't know what to say
Do you think about me too?
When you moved so far away
When you hopped up on the plane
But I put that in your brain
Well we tried, and we pretended
We tried, and we pretended
We tried, and we pretended, but let's face it

I'm upside down
Please let go
I'm on the other side of the world
Minor chord
Even so
I'm happy you're out on your own in the world

You're gonna be alright
It hurts for me to see you doing
All kinds of alright, yeah
It only don't work 'cause it ain't full circle
You're gonna be alright
It hurts for me to see you doing
All kinds of alright, yeah
You're never gonna learn if nobody gonna teach you
I know I promised I was always gonna have you
And I'm gonna follow through but can't just make it casual
Like this was my first call when I got some bad news
Talked me through some bad booze
When you didn't have to
I should've said something, shouldn't I?
I didn't wanna just be rollin' my eyes
When we scooped you up from the airport
Then you made a fair point
"If I always gotta live for you, who's gonna care for me?"

I'm upside down (upside down)
Please let go
I'm on the other side of the world
Minor chord
Even so
I'm happy you're out on your own in the world (world)

Wo-orld
Oh no
I'm happy
