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
