Written by Chris Kissel

lyrics

On my side, there's a shattered old tavern.
On my side, there's a church on the hill.
Over here we work late. Here we keep our lawns straight,
And we promise to do the Lord's will.

We're two worlds apart, and no love is lost.
The space between us, nothing can cross
Except the Chacahoula Bridge, 'cross the Evangeline.
But I stay on my side
And I stay on mine.

On my side, at an all-night diner,
I joined her alone at a booth.
We laughed and we lied, and we stayed there all night
But deep down we both knew the truth.

We're two worlds apart, and no love is lost.
The space between us, nothing can cross
Except the Chacahoula Bridge, 'cross the Evangeline.
But I stay on my side
And I stay on mine.

I came home last month to a notice:
Three weeks till you’re out on your ass,
You'll have to leave town, they're tearing her down
To make room for a new overpass.

On my side, everything's changing.
It's been ten years since I've seen his face.
Well, things fall apart, so I moved away,
Across the bridge to find a new place

We're two worlds apart, and no love is lost.
The space between us, nothing can cross
Except the Chacahoula Bridge, 'cross the Evangeline.
But I stay on my side
And I stay on mine.

Except the Chacahoula Bridge, 'cross the Evangeline.
But I stay on my side
And I stay on mine.
