An homage to 80’s moody ballads, “Outside” is a mysterious and sensual song which deals with the feeling of claustrophobia some relationships might experience.
Its main riff is reminiscent of Berlin’s “Take My Breath Away”.
[Verse 1]
Outside, you don't know why
Tell each other in the middle of the night
Talk about it like you really want to know
What she running around for?
[Verse 2]
Rat-tat the door unlatch
Someone here to take you back
Outside in the middle of the street
Are you getting what you need?
[Chorus]
Thoughts of you running through my mind
Open door but it doesn't feel right
You look at me as if you know what it's like
In the shadow of the streetlight
[Verse 3]
Now I know I can't go back
You're with her and she doesn't deserve that
But when I look into your eyes
You see something I'm trying to hide
[Verse 4]
Thoughts of you running through my mind
Open door but it doesn't feel right
You look at me as if you know what it's like
In the shadow of the streetlight
[Chorus]
Thoughts of you running through my mind
Open door but it doesn't feel right
You look at me as if you know what it's like
In the shadow of the streetlight
Shadow, why's it a shame for me to love?
[Outro]
In the shadow of the streetlight
In the shadow of the streetlight
In the shadow of the streetlight
In the shadow of the streetlight
