"On Your Side" lyrics

Flash of light in a young man's eyes
A dark truth and a little white lie
A crying shame comes over you
But it's too late to deny
So tie a rope around your waist and jump
There's more to life than trying to add it up
But things are pretty when they're blowing up
So save yourself the time

'Cause God, He's on your side, He's on your side
Long as you let Him, He won't say goodbye
Oh God, He's on your side, He's on your side
Long as you let Him, He won't say goodbye

Spend my youth drawing lines in the sand
Standing up because we think we can
Build a castle on the softest land
Let nature come decide
Love is knowing that you cannot win
Never trying to do it over again
Outside of any place in time
Love is never shy

'Cause God, He's on your side, He's on your side
Long as you let Him, He won't say goodbye
Oh God, He's on your side, He's on your side
Long as you let Him, He won't say goodbye

We're all liars and we're thieves
We're all drunks and Pharisees
And we can't hold our own against the end
And time is not with us
Though we glitter in the dust
She calls my name, but never calls us friends
Calls us friends, friends

I said God, He's on your side, He's on your side
Long as you let Him, He won't say goodbye
I said God, He's on your side, He's on your side
Long as you let Him, He won't say goodbye
I said God, He's on your side, He's on your side
Long as you let Him, He won't say goodbye
I said God, He's on your side, He's on your side
Long as you let Him, He won't say goodbye

Nah, He won't say goodbye
Oh, He won't say goodbye
