[00:00:06] Outside Looking In*(Album Vers—Mary Chapin Carpenter

[00:00:08] (Mary Chapin Carpenter)

[00:00:16] Everywhere I see the signs pointing one direction

[00:00:24] No more twists or crooked turns leaving room for doubt

[00:00:32] Where I used to take the time for quiet and reflection

[00:00:40] Now I only hear the noise of what I am without

[00:00:48] I see them walking hand in hand and my eyes just want to linger

[00:00:56] On those golden wedding bands wrapped around their fingers

[00:01:04] By the time I turn away I feel it once again

[00:01:11] I'm back in this familiar place outside looking in

[00:01:28] Baby all the tears between us couldn't fill the spaces

[00:01:35] And all the word we grasped at they just fell away

[00:01:43] I kept waiting on forgiveness to fix the broken places

[00:01:51] But nothing even like it ever came my way

[00:01:59] And tonight I drove around and the street came up before me

[00:02:07] I took a turn and then I found this old house coming toward me

[00:02:15] I heard the sound a heart must make when a memory's caving in

[00:02:23] Oh baby what a hungry place outside looking in

[00:02:47] It's the hardest kind of need that never knows a reason

[00:02:55] Are we such a lonely breed or just born in a lonely season

[00:03:03] Baby it's all in the eyes it's where the reckoning begins

[00:03:11] It's where we linger like a sigh it's where we long to be pulled in

[00:03:19] It's where we learn to say goodbye without saying anything

[00:03:27] Standing on the borderline outside looking in
