[Verse 1]
I'm on the outside looking in
An' I want to be, an' I want to be back on the inside with you
You are with somebody new, and I don't know what to do
'Cause I'm still in love with you
(In love with you)
[Verse 2]
I'm on the outside looking in
I don't want to be, I don't want to be left on the outside, all alone
Well, I guess I've had my day, and you let me go my way
Now it's me who has to pay-ay-ay
[Bridge]
I never should have gone away
I never should have gone away a-a-and left you like I did
With tears in your eye-e-s
I thought you'd take me back
But now, to my surprise (To my surprise)
[Verse 3]
I'm on the outside looking in
Got to find a way, got to find a way back to your heart, dear, once again
Won't you take me back again? I'll be waiting here 'til then
On the outside looking in
[Outro]
Won't you take me back again?
I'll be waiting here 'til then
On the outside looking in
On the outside looking in
Oh, looking in
I don't want to be, I don't want to be, I don't want to be looking in
Oh, looking in
Oh
