Alison Krauss - On The Outside Looking In lyrics

You've closed a door in front of me I wait patiently outside And as the minutes tick away I feel my anger rise And who's the object of my rage? And who's not being fair? Is it you for your indifference? Or me for just standing there? 'Cause in my mind the room beyond is bathed in golden light Well I dream about you through the day and I toss and turn at night Sometimes it's hard to understand When they say that pride's a sin Should I go or should I stay on the outside looking in? Well I didn't make the grade today and I'm not the only one But my heart won't stop hurting my feeling all alone And maybe we'll trade places in some not so distant year I'll hear your voice a-calling out and I'd cover up my ears 'Cause in my mind the room beyond is bathed in golden light well I dream about you through the day and I toss and turn at night Well sometimes it's hard to understand when they say that pride's a sin An' should I go or should I stay on the outside looking in? well I could brag on the things I've done or the places I have been But I've never found a cure for on the outside looking in Sometimes it's hard to understand when they say that pride's a sin Should I go or should I stay on the outside looking in?
