On the Other Side - Janis Ian

They say there was a fire on the night I died

All I am is gone

Still the soul goes on

They tell me I’m a hero on the other side

Oh, but all that I remember

Is the children were in danger

On the other side

Children laugh and sing

On the other side

Angels earn their wings

On the other side

They say that you were with me

When the building fell

Strange to have you near

After all these years

They say I couldn’t possibly

Have done it by myself

Did you see our photograph

As it crumbled into ash?

On the other side

Children laugh and sing

On the other side

Angels earn their wings

On the other side

And I, who never could believe

Never saw the need

Wanted just to see your face again

With nothing to hold on to

Now I’ve found you…

On the other side

Children laugh and sing

On the other side

The angels earn their wings

On the other side

Vocatus atque non vocatus, deus aderit

Sursum, Domini, sursum Domini

Ora pro nobis, in ora pro nobis pacem

Kyrie

In ora Kyrie eleison

Kyrie
