STANDING ON THE INSIDE
(Neil Sedaka)
Standin' on the outside
Lookin' in.
You know it's been a long time,
Don't know where to begin.
So much I wanna say, so much I wanna do,
Friends are tellin' me
It's time that you broke through.
I've been through the hard times
Of searchin' souls,
You know it's been a hard climb
From rock and roll.
Now I feel the need in me, so hard to explain,
Now I've seen the joy and light,
And I wanna remain.
Standin' on the inside,
I finally broke that line,
Ring around the circle,
Don't you know that it feels so fine.
Every waking moment
I just wanna sing the news
That I'm standin' on the inside,
I kicked away them blues.
All the phoney faces
Stand in line.
All the back-slappers
Know my name this time.
Now that I've turned the lock, now that I've opened
the door,
I won't be on the outside, no, any more.
Standin' on the inside,
I finally broke that line,
Ring around the circle,
Don't you know that it feels so fine.
Every waking moment
I just wanna sing the news
That I'm standin' on the inside,
I pushed away them blues.
Now that I've turned the lock, now that I've opened
the door,
I won't be on the outside, no, any more.
Standin' on the inside,
I finally broke that line,
Ring around the circle,
Don't you know that it feels so fine.
Every waking moment
I just wanna sing the news
That I'm standin' on the inside,
I kicked away them blues.
Standin' on the inside,
Standin' on the inside,
I kicked, kicked, kicked it,
Standin' on the inside,
Standin' on the inside,
I kicked, kicked...
