Lyrics:

I'm on the outside looking in
An' I want to be, an' I want to be back on the inside with 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't want to be, I don't want to be left on the outside, all alone
Well, I guess I've had my day, and you let 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
Got to find a way, got to find a way back to your heart, dear, once again
Won't you take me back again? I'll be waiting here 'til then
On the outside looking in

Won't you take me back again?
I'll be waiting here 'til then
On the outside looking in
On the outside looking in
Oh, looking in
I don't want to be, I don't want to be, I don't want to be looking in
Oh, looking in
Oh
