Outside Looking In
(专辑: Stones In The Road - 1994)
Everywhere I
see the
signs, pointing one direction No more twists or crooked turns, leaving room for doubt Where I
used to take the
time for quiet and reflection Now I
only hear the
noise of what I
am without I
see them walking hand in hand, and my eyes just want to linger On those golden wedding bands, wrapped around their fingers By the
time I
turn away, I
feel it once again I'm back in this familiar place, outside looking in Baby, all the
tears between us couldn't fill the
spaces And all the
word we grasped at, they just fell away I
kept waiting on forgiveness to fix the
broken places But nothing even like it ever came my way And tonight I
drove around, and the
street came up before me I
took a
turn and then I
found this old house coming toward me I
heard the
sound a
heart must make when a
memory's caving in Oh baby, what a
hungry place, outside looking in It's the
hardest kind of need that never knows a
reason Are we such a
lonely breed, or just born in a
lonely season Baby, it's all in the
eyes, it's where the
reckoning begins It's where we linger like a
sigh, it's where we long to be pulled in It's where we learn to say goodbye without saying anything Standing on the
borderline, outside looking in
