Not on the Outside Lyrics

So you think
My heart's made of stone, I know you do
And when you're near me
There's no reaction
Well, you're wrong
Yes, you're so wrong
You know why?

From the tip of my toes
My love for you steadily grows
On and on
Yes it does

And each day you're not here
I'm soaking wet with my tears
Not on the outside, but
Inside strong
I love you, I love you, my darling
Ooh, without you, I can't go on

I need you, I need you so badly
Ooh, to keep this cold heart warm
So when you smile at me
Ooh, and I don't speak
It's not that I don't care, oh lawd
But I'm so weak
Yes, I be so weak for you, my darling
You know why?

'Cause from my head to my toes
My love for you steadily grows
Not on the outside
But inside strong

I love you, I love you, my darling
Ooh, without you, I can't go on
I need you, I need you so badly
Ooh, to keep this cold heart warm

Dedicated to you, Larry
Whom I had the sincere privilege
Of writing this tune with
But due to God's calling of you
For far better purposes
You were unable to hear your partner's version
But dear Larry, wherever you are
I hope you'll take a listen
And I'd like your stamp of approval
You know why? 'Cause

You're not on the outside
Ooh, you're not on the outside, mmm
You're not on the outside
Ooh, you're not on the outside

You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside, good God (I'd like to, at this time)
You're not on the outside (Introduce you to my little band)

You're not on the outside (On drums, we have)
You're not on the outside (Mr. Yogi Horton)
You're not on the outside (On bass, Mr. Frankie Prescod)
You're not on the outside, good God (On lead guitar)

You're not on the outside, mmm (We have Mr. Billy Jones)
You're not on the outside (On acoustic guitar is yours truly)
You're not on the outside (And I would like to jam a little bit for you)
You're not on the outside (And we hope that you'll enjoy it)
You know why? Ahh

You're not on the outside (Yeah, do it, baby)
You're not on the outside (Play it, Billy, ah, that's it)
You're not on the outside
Ooh, you're not on the outside (Come on, Billy, now)
(Play that bad guitar)

You're not on the outside (Alright, that's it, you're doing it now)
You're not on the outside (Mmm, lay it in there, that's it)
You're not on the outside
Ooh, you're not on the outside, again (Uh huh, yeah)

You're not on the outside (Now here's our little bad bass player)
You're not on the outside (Frankie, come on, play it for us, now)
You're not on the outside (From the bottom of it, yeah)
You're not on the outside (That's it, alright)

You're not on the outside (Here's our little cute fella in the blue)
You're not on the outside (Yogi Horton)
You're not on the outside (On the mean drums, come on Yogi)
You're not on the outside (Do it, alright, that's it, you've got it now)

You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside (Yeah, no arrangement will ever be complete)
You're not on the outside (Without the beautiful strings of Mr. Sammy Love)
You're not on the outside (Play it pretty, Sammy)

You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside (Yeah, you know why?)

You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside

You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside

You're not on the outside (That's it)
You're not on the outside (Let's go home)
You're not on the outside
You're not on the outside
