ON THE OUTSIDE (LOOKING IN)
(Bill Giant / Bernie Baum / Florence Kaye)


Bobbi Martin - 1964



On the outside lookin' in
I could feel those tears begin
Standin' on the outside lookin' in

I passed your house last night
And it looked so warm and bright
Then I saw you with someone else

I couldn't believe my eyes
It hurt me so to realise
I'm left alone, all by myself

On the outside lookin' in
I could feel those tears begin
Standin' on the outside lookin' in

My heart was filled with fear
Through the window it was clear
She held you tight and shared your kiss

Darlin', I called your name
I couldn't stop the ache and pain
I never felt as hurt as this

On the outside lookin' in
I could feel those tears begin
Standin' on the outside lookin' in

On the outside lookin' in
I could feel those tears begin
Standin' on the outside lookin' in (Lookin' in)
