[00:06.96]Brendan James
[00:10.96]The Day Is Brave
[00:15.16]I was a child once
[00:18.45]The fear of the world in my eye
[00:21.85]Far from the safety of the other side
[00:28.52]I colored by numbers
[00:31.84]Learned how to tie my own shoes
[00:35.29]Like all of the others
[00:37.30]I just prayed I’d make it through
[00:41.65]Prayed I would make it through
[00:44.61]
[00:46.75]Oh Mother
[00:48.21]look how your boy turned out
[00:51.03]300 miles from that small town
[00:54.78]You never stopped believing
[00:56.83]Oh Daddy
[00:58.07]It hurt to watch you walking out
[01:01.07]But understand it made me stronger now
[01:05.30]And so satisfied
[01:08.96]So full of pride
[01:12.48]Thank you here from the other side
[01:19.10]
[01:31.08]I’ll always remember
[01:34.74]The kids and how mean they’d been
[01:38.07]Eleven years old and I could not fit in
[01:44.83]But I made it through high school
[01:48.18]And college according to plan
[01:51.66]Where pressure was never greater to become a man
[01:58.22]Would I become a man
[02:00.88]
[02:03.23]Oh Mother
[02:04.38]Look how your boy turned out
[02:07.54]300 miles from that small town
[02:11.31]You never stopped believing
[02:13.33]Oh Daddy
[02:14.70]It hurt to watch you walking out
[02:17.66]But understand it made me stronger now
[02:21.96]And so satisfied
[02:25.55]So full of pride
[02:29.13]Thank you here from the other side
[02:35.72]Thank you here from the other side
[02:42.54]
[03:08.28]Mother look how your boy turned out
[03:11.64]300 miles from that small town
[03:18.39]And Dad it hurt to watch you walking out
[03:21.80]Hear the piano do the crying now
[03:27.98]For all the preachers and the teachers now
[03:31.99]For all the ones who never let me down
[03:36.37]I’m so satisfied
[03:39.99]So full of pride
[03:43.48]Standing here on the other side
[03:50.11]Thank you here from the other side
[03:56.84]Thank you here from the other side
[04:03.61]
[04:04.98]Outro:
[04:12.88]
[04:18.07]Here on the other side I’m taking my time
[04:30.70]There’s nothing to fear
[04:33.82]There’s nothing to worry about on the other side
[04:43.73]I remember when I thought I’d never find
[04:52.27]The other side
