Little children like to form a circle Tightly holding hands with all their friends An imaginary line around them Keeping out the ones who are not in But standing on the edge is not the same And those who watch can never win the game Are you on the outside ( 3x ) Come on in ( 3x ) There's a family that has formed a circle Though its tightly arms are open wide But there is a line you must cross over If you really want to come inside But standing on the edge is not the same And those who watch can never share the name Are you on the outside (Come on in ) ( 3x ) Come on in ( 3x ) The line becomes a wall When you stading behind it But grace can make the door If you choose to find it Are you on the outside (Come on in ) ( 3x ) Come on in ( 3x )
