The Other Side
Paul van Dyk Featuring Wayne Jackson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When this broken trough
I will can't with you
When I wait my longest time
Daylight brings the great divide

We can like the rain
Whispering your name
Long to be with you divide
Believe the sunrise

When I reach the line
I will see you on the other side

See you on the other side
When I closed my eyes

See you on the other side
When I closed my eyes

Speeding City lights
Leavening week tonight
Oh I miss you once inside
Stars cannot to shine

Across the waterline
I can feel you on the other side

See you on the other side
When I closed my eyes
And I reached the lights

See you on the other side
When I closed my eyes

See you on the other side
When I closed my eyes
And I reached the lights





See you on the other side
When I closed my eyes

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "The Other Side" by Paul van Dyk featuring Wayne Jackson are filled with romantic longing and the desire to be with someone who is seemingly out of reach. The song is about a person who has been separated from their loved one and is waiting for the moment when they can be reunited. The opening lines suggest that the singer may have been through a difficult time, but they know that they can face it with their partner by their side. The line "When this broken trough I will can't with you" implies that they have overcome a challenging situation in the past and are ready to face the future with their loved one.


As the song progresses, the lyrics express the desire to be with the loved one, even if it's just a whisper of their name in the rain. The lines "Long to be with you divide, Believe the sunrise" suggest that the singer is willing to wait for their loved one to be with them again, no matter how long it takes. The chorus "see you on the other side, when I closed my eyes" is a clear indication that the singer is looking forward to the moment when they will be reunited with their loved one, whether it's in this life or the next.


The second half of the song describes the singer's yearning for their loved one, even as they go about their daily lives in the city. They miss their partner deeply, and even the stars in the sky cannot shine as brightly as their love. The bridge "across the waterline, I can feel you on the other side" is a poetic way of expressing the connection that the singer feels with their loved one, even though they may be physically far apart. The song ends with the repeated refrain "see you on the other side, when I closed my eyes", which is a powerful expression of the singer's love and desire to be with their partner.

When this broken trough
When this difficult time is over


I will can't with you
I will be unable to cope without you


When I wait my longest time
When I am waiting for what feels like an eternity


Daylight brings the great divide
Daylight makes it harder to bridge the distance between us


We can like the rain
We can be like the rain that falls endlessly


Whispering your name

Leaving work behind tonight

I feel your absence deeply


Stars cannot to shine
Even the stars seem less bright without you


Across the waterline
Across the vast expanse of ocean between us


I can feel you on the other side
I know that you are waiting for me on the other side


And I reached the lights
And I finally made it through the darkness
