The Other Girl - Lyrics - Ten Mile Tide

Ten Mile Tide is an independent band originating in San Francisco. They describe their sound as "feel-good acoustic rock, foot-stomping folk, and beer-drenched bluegrass." Twin brothers Jason and Justin Munning started the band in 1999 at Stanford University along with Steve Kessler , Marc Mazzoni , Bryan Jayne , and Brooks Dubose . Jeff Clemetson , Kristen Kessler and Matt Mitchell joined on to form the core of the band which toured in different formats full-time for over 6 years.

I met a girl who wanted a song about her On a straight highway going south She settled down and started her story She's just trying to figure some things out I don't know I just can't find the words but The other girl was sitting in the mirror Not really saying all that much Settled down as her eyes started closing I felt so out of touch I can't say I just can't tell her about it (Chorus): The other girl is the one that makes me see That I can write a song about someone and be free I never knew enough to tell her how I feel We walked away and then we settled She's throwing crumbs into the dust A shattered land under bright white fingers Just trying to build a little trust I don't know I just can't find the words but (Chorus) I don't know what I should do I don't know what I should say When we came back things started changing Walls were shot up instantly All the rules were breaking the answers Some things just aren't meant to be but I don't know I just can't take that answer (Chorus)
