I'm on the outside looking in
An' I wanna be, an' I wanna be back
On the inside w-i-i-th 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)
I'm on the outside looking in

I don' wanna be
I don' wanna be left on the outside all alone
Well, I guess I've had my day and
You left me go my way

Now it's me who has to pay ay ay
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)
I'm on the outside looking in

Gotta find a way, gotta find a
Way back to your heart, dear, once again
Won't you take me back again? I'll
Be waiting here till then

On the outside looking in
Won't you take me back again? I'll
Be waiting here till then
On the outside looking in

On the outside looking in, looking in
I don' wanna be, I don' wanna be
I don' wanna be looking in
