There's another side to everything

Connected like the ring around your finger

And I know this like I know myself,

Not very well, yet I'm no stranger

But it won't be long, I see both sides now



When nothing's gained, then something's lost

Pay half the price at twice the cost

We're crystallized, we stand alone

Conviction holds us like a stone

I know it won't be long, 'cause I see both sides now



We got to learn how to listen, before we learn to talk

We got to learn how to crawl, befor we learn to walk

If you want a little peace, sometimes you got to fight

We got to walk through the darkness

Before we stand in the light

But I know it won't be long, I see both sides now



We're always somewhere in between

We never taste, the sweet extreme

We're crystallized, we stand alone

Conviction holds us like a stone

I know it won't be long, I see both sides now



We got to learn how to listen, before we learn to talk

You got to learn to crawl, before you learn to walk

If you want a little peace, sometimes you got to fight

You've got to walk through the darkness

Before you stand in the light

I know it won't be long

I see both sides now

Both sides now
