From the outside looking in
I see two lovers on the boardwalk
On the first warm day of spring, holding hands
But when I look again

There is something missing from this picture
That I don't understand
From the outside looking in, everybody sees
A couple so in love, yeah that's you and me

But from the inside looking out
Everything is different baby and I can't figure out
If you can even see it maybe
You still believe what everybody sees from the outside looking in

Nothing's new, I had a good day
Love you too, that's what we talk about, we just settle in
Here inside my head this voice is screaming
But no words are coming out

From the outside looking in
You're close enough to touch
I'm sitting right beside you, baby
Missing you so much

From the inside looking out
I'm watching our love slip away and I can't figure out
How to reach you, what to say, oh, it's killing me
What nobody sees from the outside looking in

You know, I really love you
I wish that you would see
Love ain't just a habit baby
This isn't how it has to be

'Cause from the inside looking out, we've still got a lot worth saving
Let's find each other now before we throw it all away
Oh, I still believe we can go back again
Be the lovers we see from the outside looking in
