节奏布鲁斯:Bruno Mars - The Other Side

Truth¹ of the matter is i'm complicated²
You're as³ straight⁴ as they come
You go about your day baby
While⁵ i hide⁶ from the sun
It's better if you don't understand
Cos you won't know
what it's like until⁷ you try
You know i' i'll be waiting on the other side⁸
And you' all you gotta do is cross the line
I could¹⁰ wait a whole¹¹ life¹² time
But you just got⁹ to decide¹³
You know i' i'll be waiting on the other
Waiting on the other side
We would¹⁴ live forever¹⁵
Who could ask for more
You could die¹⁶ if you wanted
But baby what for?
It's better if you don't understand
And you won't know what it's like til you try
You know i' i'll be waiting on the other side
And you' all you gotta do is cross the line
I could wait a whole life time
But you just got to decide
You know i' i'll be waiting on the other
Waiting on the other side
Cos they say life's a dream'
call this insomnia
Cos this ain't wonderland'
it damn sure ain't narnia
And once you cross the line
You can't change your mind
Yeah i'm a monster but i'm no frankenstein
And quite frankly i've been feeling
insane in between my eyes
I really can't explain what i feel inside
If you know what i was you'd run and hide
Maybe if you try to go into the night
And cross over the line
And come back alive
But that's the price we pay
And when we living on the other side
You know i' i'll be waiting on the other side
And you' all you gotta do is cross the line
I could wait a whole life time
But you just got to decide
You know i' i'll be waiting on the other
Waiting on the other side
It's better if you don't understand
It's better if you don't understand
（ooh ooh ah）
It's better if you don't understand
（ooh ooh ah）
It's better if you don't understand
（ooh ooh ah）
It's better if you don't understand
（ooh ooh ah）
It's better if you don't understand
