Story Behind The Song
A deep connection between two people which had those around them recognize the magic and energy produced from that relationship - but it eventually grows old and cold leaving one feeling as if they've been 'kicked off the bus' or rejected and dismissed to the "FlipSide."
Song Description
An homage to the term 'Flip Side' which was associated with the seven-inch 45rpm single play records so prevalent in the 1950s-60s and the fact that the most popular song was on the "A" side or the main side and the 2nd place song - usually of lesser quality and favor - was recorded on the "B" side often referred to as the 'flip-side.'

Lyrics
There was a time we were so close
Everybody said, baby, that we were the 'most' . . .
There was a time, we sang in rhyme,
I felt the beat of your music and you sang mine
Now the magic's gone, and my song can't go on
Ohh oh oh oh oh - you put me on the FlipSide of your life
