Other Side Of The Light Songtext
von Blackberry Smoke

Take a look out in the distance, see the fire light up the night
Will it ever come this far, mama? Oh, will we make it alright?
The embers are rising, the ashes fall like rain
I′m blinded by the smoke and praying for daylight again

Can I take your hand
Mama, don't let go

If the sky is falling and the mountains all shake
Will you be my shelter ′til a new dawn breaks?
She said I'll walk you through the shadows
'Til we make it through the night
Don′t worry about the darkness
It′s just the other side of the light
Oh, yeah

As I look back in my memory, I guess I've made it through somehow
I′ve stumbled through the valley, halfway up the mountain now
Another storm on the horizon, another axe about to fall
I can't go back the way I came, just forward through it all


I′ll take your hand
No, I won't let go

If the sky is falling and the mountains all shake
Will you give me shelter ′til a new dawn breaks?
She said I'll walk you through the shadows
'Til we make it through the night
Don′t worry about the darkness
It′s just the other side of the light

Can you open up your arms and cover one another?
Can you shine and light the way
For your sister and your brother?
Hey, yeah, oh

If the sky is falling and the mountains all shake
Will you give me shelter 'til a new dawn breaks?
She said I′ll walk you through the shadows
'Til we make it through the night
Don′t worry about the darkness
It's just the other side of the light
Oh, yeah
