Wrong Side Of Love Lyrics

I'm hanging on, I'm hurting
I'm backing down, you're starting over
You and I, we've had enough.
The wrong side of love

Even if my heart was burning
Wouldn't stop the world from turning over
I've had a lot, I've had enough
The wrong side of...

Keep running baby don't look back
Keep running down a one way track
You'll be the one to break my heart in two
I'll be the one to take the hit for you

If I had a chance I'd take it
If I had a heart I'd break it open
You and I we've had enough
The wrong side of...

Keep running baby don't look back
Keep running down a one way track
You'll be the one to break my heart in two
I'll be the one to take the hit for you

You can't walk away from what your heart knows
And I'm holding on til you let me go
You let me go

And all the dreams I had they lost along the way
And all the words you said that you never meant to say
Well no one else is gonna love you like I do
Come a little closer hunny I can't live without you
No one else is gonna love you like I do
No one else, no one else

Can't walk away from what your heart knows
Can't trade today for tomorrow
Yeah I'm holding on til you let me go.

"You can't walk away from what your heart knows".

That line haunts me. Now that I've bought the album, I see the way this song plays with and contrasts "On the Other Side," the subsequent track. The "Wrong Side" seems to refer to an unrequited love. There are some really great lines about dealing with it and trying to move on, even if futile. If there is an "Other Side," it is far-fetched (like a shot in the dark).

But the song still retains some hope, just barely.

I'm a romantic, so I'll cling to that...

Beginning of the song he tells her walk away don't look back..Then his hope grows.."If I had a chance I'd take it, If I had a heart i'd break it open. (she took his heart) He then tells her "You can't walk away from what your heart knows" He wants to leave her but he can't and he's gonna hold on until she lets him go...
