Standing On The Inside

Neil Sedaka

Intro: (x4) verse 1: Standing on the outside (quick x2) Looking 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 telling me (quick x2) It's time that you broke through verse 2: I've been through the hard times (quick x2) Of searching soul You know it's been a hard climb From rock and roll Pre-Chorus 1: Now I feel a need in me So hard to explain Now I've seen the joy and light And I wanna remain Standing 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 standing on the inside I kicked away them blues Break: (x2) verse 3: All the phoney faces (quick x2) Stand in line All the backslappers Know my name this time Pre-Chorus 2: Now that I've turned the lock Now that I've opened the door I won't be on the outside, no Anymore Standing 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 standing on the inside Pushed away them blues Break: (x4) Pre-Chorus 3: Now that I've turned the lock Now that I've opened the door I won't be on the outside, no Anymore Standing 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 standing on the inside I kicked away them blues Outro: Standing on the inside (standing on the inside) Standing on the inside (standing on the inside) I kicked, I kicked, I kicked, I kicked (standing on the inside) (Repeat x2 more times and fade) Babe, baby, yeah
