From the outside looking in
See two lovers on the Boardwalk
On the first warm day of spring holding hands
When I look again.
There is something missing from this picture
That I don't understand
From the outside looking in everybody sees
A couple so in love, yeah that's you and me.
But from the inside looking out
Everything is different, baby
And I can't figure out
If you can even see it maybe
You still believe what everybody sees.
From the outside looking in
Nothing's new, I had a good day, I love you too
Is what we talk about
We just settled in.
And here inside my head this voice is screaming
But no one words are coming out
From the outside looking in, close enough to touch
I'm sitting right beside you, baby
I'm missing you so much.
From the inside looking out
I'm watching our love slip away
And I can't figure out
How to reach you, what to say
Oh, it's killing me where nobody sees
From the outside looking in.
(From the outside looking in.)
And though I really love you
(And though I really love you)
I wish that you could see
(I wish that you could see)
And are we just a habit, baby
Oh, this isn't how it has to be.
'Cause from the inside looking out
We've still got a lot worth saving
Let's find each other now
Before we throw it all away
Oh, I still believe (I still believe)
We can go back again (we can go back again)
Be the lovers we see
From the outside looking in...
