.
My heart is on the inside
But I sometimes wear it
On the outside of my sleeve
And then there’s the wrong side
Or the left side
And the right side
Looking on the dark side
Or the bright side
Being on the winning side
Not the losing side
Is the upside
Not the downside of life
Not to mention the blindside
When you fall in love

From Alfred Lord Tennyson’s poem In Memoriam:27, 1850:
I hold it true, whate’er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
‘Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
