One, two, three
See this life playing out like it on it's on a screen
I'm on the outside looking in
Through this constant conversation there's the same old beat
I'm on the outside looking in
Now making love in fantasy I know it's a sin
But I'm on the outside looking in
I feel the force taking over as I try to resist
But I'm on the outside looking in

(Looking in)
(Looking in)

I watch myself so shy with all the people I love
I'm on the outside looking in
Baby hell I'm pretending there's heaven above
We're on the outside looking in
Now making love in fantasy I know it's a sin
But I'm on the outside looking in
I feel the force taking over as I try to resist
But I'm on the outside looking in

I remember chasing you when I was ten years old
Been trying to be your baby so I sense your control
When you disappeared I couldn't see where to go
Life has harsh words but baby you don't
I'm looking at my fantasy I know it's a sin
But I'm on the outside looking in
I feel the force taking over as I try to resist
But I'm on the outside looking in
On the outside I'm looking in
On the outside I'm looking in
On the outside I'm looking in
