Two Stories Wide
The Highwaymen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't hide in the night
Come out in the sunshine
And we'll be alright
Life's too long to worry
And it's too short to cry
And it's too deep to measure
There's your side and my side
Which side do you need?
Both sides make you lonely
And make your heart bleed
Life's too long to worry
And it's too short to cry
And it's too deep to measure
And it's too stories wide
Life's too long to worry
And its too short to cry
And its too deep to measure
And its too stories wide
Life's too long to worry
And its too short to cry
And its too deep to measure
And its too stories wide

Come out of the darkness
Don't hide away and face the outside world
Don't hide in the night
Stop isolating yourself from others
Come out in the sunshine
Experience the bright and positive moments in life
And we'll be alright
Things will work out in the end
Life's too long to worry
Don't waste your precious time stressing over things
And it's too short to cry
Life passes by too quickly to spend in tears
And it's too deep to measure
The complexities of life cannot be fully understood
And it's too stories wide
There are different perspectives to every situation
There's your side and my side
There are different versions of the truth
Which side do you need?
Decide which version of the truth you believe
Both sides make you lonely
Believing only one version of the truth can lead to isolation
And make your heart bleed
Holding onto one perspective can cause emotional pain

চিন্তা করার জন্য জীবন খুব দীর্ঘ
এবং এটি কান্না খুব ছোট
এবং এটা পরিমাপ খুব গভীর
এবং এটা খুব গল্প বিস্তৃত
