First time he laid eyes on her   He kissed his heart goodbye   He nearly drove right off the road   And all she did was smile      But when she burned up their first dinner   And laid cryin' on the couch   That's the moment that   He fell in love from the inside out      She loved the way   He always brought flowers to the door   He took her to new places   That she'd never been before      When he lost his job and he lost his pride   And his heart was filled with doubt   That's when she knew how much she loved   That man from the inside out      From the inside love is stronger   Than the outside lookin' in   When the tears fall you learn   What love is about from the inside out      She has watched her raven hair slowly turn to gray   Since the day that he retired he just gets in the way   Well, they ain't much to look at   Two old faces in the crowd   But that could write the book of love   From the inside out      From the inside love is stronger   Than the outside lookin' in   When the tears fall you learn   What love is about from the inside out      From the inside out, from the inside   First time he laid eyes on her   He kissed his heart goodbye
