Lyric
OUR OTHER LIFE (Original version)
Michael Van Dorpe, Alexandre Djalili, Takuya Nishimura
Something in your eye threw a spell at me, making me smile
When I close my eyes, I see yours looking at me, and it's feeling alright
Something in my eyes revealed my deepest desire
My desire for you makes you do crazy things, set fire in you
It's alright. It's so cool
Just take it as it comes
It's our time together
It’s all right, it’s all good
Just leave your hand in mine
And leave it for a while
We came from other worlds
Our paths had crossed early 17
So can't we just fantasize?
What could have been our life
And make us feel our other life
And it's alright, yes it's alright
When you're in my arms, time stands still
And I can't stop kissing you
Making you smile, like a break in your life
It's our time together
Yes it's a miracle, take a breath
And let's feel this moment
Sure, it's so short this time again, but we're together, and now you can close your eyes
It's alright. It's so cool
Just take it as it comes
It's our time together
It’s all right, it’s all good
Just leave your hand in mine
And leave it for a while
We came from other worlds
Our paths had crossed early 17
So can't we just fantasize?
What could have been our life
And make us feel our other life
And it's alright, yes it's alright
In the silence of your absence
Sure there was sadness in me. But fear not
Cause no danger lies in true love
I'm happy by nature, like you are
And I'm even happier
Cause I met you, and you're amazing
Now that I know, that on this planet
There are angels like you
It's alright. It's so cool
Just take it as it comes
It's our time together
It’s all right, it’s all good
Just leave your hand in mine
And leave it for a while

OUR OTHER LIFE (Original version)
Michael Van Dorpe, Alexandre Djalili, Takuya Nishimura
Unlike the usual rock beats and rolling chords of Michael's music, "Our Other Life" reveals a tender, introspective side of his artistry. This heartfelt ballad transports listeners into a dreamy world of connection, longing, and love. With poetic lyrics that speak to the magic of serendipitous encounters and the beauty of fleeting moments, the song offers a soothing yet emotionally rich experience.
The gentle yet rhythmic melody and evocative storytelling invite you to imagine "what could have been" while celebrating the miracles of the present. Its universal themes of love, desire, and the transformative power of being truly seen by someone special create an intimacy that feels both personal and relatable.
"Our Other Life" is a departure from the high-energy rock you might expect, but it's a refreshing, soulful detour that showcases the versatility and emotional depth of Michael, alongside his friends Alexandre Djalili (bass guitar) and Takuya Nishimura (drums). Step into this otherworldly love story and let the music take you somewhere truly different.
