we both grew to despise
the girl you fell in love with
and when i changed my ways
you accused me of being in denial
you never believed in a thing
i called redemption
so i had get out of your car
and walk by myself for awhile
you would rather be getting tight
with your friends in the bars at night
than come to me on the other side of the fire
new ways are always strange
but its time to make a change
im waiting on the other side of the fire
ive been drunk and ive been lazy
ive been stoned and ive been crazy
but i swear i am not that girl any more
ive been straight as a board
since i took jesus as my lord
and he's the one now knocking on your door
you would rather be getting tight
with your friends in the bars at night
than come to me on the other side of the fire
new ways are always strange
but its time to make a change
im waiting on the other side of the fire
i ride horses in the day
take my boat across the lake
i got no time to waste on sin
take those bags of stolen cash
throw them in the trash
jesus is knocking on your heart
hurry up and let him in
no more time for getting tight
with your friends in the bars at night
come to the other side of the fire
new ways are always strange
but its time to make a change
im waiting on the other side of the fire
