Other Side Of Town lyrics

[Intro]

I should've left that side of town alone

I should've left that side of the town alone

I should've left that side of town alone

A long time ago

I should’ve left that side of town alone

I should’ve left that side of the town alone

I should’ve left that side of the town alone

A long time ago

[Verse 1]

We met at a party about almost two years ago

But there was a part of me that she just didn't know

I tried to hide it from her but it didn't take long

Before she would've found me and see where I go

I wanted to tell her but I just didn't know how

And every time I'd spoke, the words just wouldn't come out

Everyone will tell you that old habits die hard

And it's just the same for me

[Pre-Chorus]

She wouldn't compromise

She'd wanna stand her ground

She wouldn't talk to me

She wouldn't make a sound

She wanna say goodbye

I wanna reconcile

What type of shit is she on?

[Chorus]

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of the town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

A long time ago

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of the town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

A long time ago

[Verse 2]

Guilty, it's getting to me but she wasn't home

Keep trying to call but she won't pick up her phone

My conscience is speaking to me but I'm in the wrong

She don't wanna talk to me, she'd rather go, go

Tried to apologize for the lies that I told

She don't wanna hear it n' told me to leave her alone

I didn't appreciate her until she was gone

And now it's too late for that

[Pre-Chorus]

She wouldn't compromise

She'd wanna stand her ground

She wouldn't talk to me

She wouldn't make a sound

She wanna say goodbye

I wanna reconcile

What type of shit is she on?

[Chorus]

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of the town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

A long time ago

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of the town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

A long time ago

[Bridge]

She won't even talk to me, no

She won't even talk to me, no

She won't even talk to me, no

She won't, she won't

She won't even talk to me, no

(She wouldn't compromise)

(She'd wanna stand her ground)

She won't even talk to me, no

(She wouldn't talk to me)

(She wouldn't make the sound)

She won't even talk to me, no

(She wanna say goodbye)

(I wanna reconcile)

She won't, she won't

(What type of shit is she on?)

[Chorus]

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of the town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

A long time ago

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of the town alone (oh)

I should've left that side of town alone (oh)

A long time ago
