I've been living in a different life
At a different time
When all I saw was you
I've been walking around my room
I see a girl on the other side and she looks at me
But there's nothing that I find!
I've been holding back for you
I've been holding back, holding back
And if lightning strikes you down
I'll be left on the outside
And if colours can't be found
I'll be left on the outside
And I can't find the words to say
So I remain the same
Come on, come on
Open up for me
Left on the outside
Many times that I lie awake and I think of me
And I never fail to see
A little piece of my mind so down, so down
You can leave it up to me starting to believe
That I'm getting to know you well
I've been holding back for you
I've been holding back, holding back
And if lightning strikes you down
I'll be left on the outside
And if colours can't be found
I'll be left on the outside
And I can't find the words to say
So I remain the same
Come on, come on
Open up
And I want to try for you
If you'll notice me too
And I won't lie to you
Please say the same
I'll take my time
Keep your light on, honey
Keep your light on
And if lightning strikes you down
I'll be left on the outside
And if colours can't be found
I'll be left on the outside
And if lightning strikes you down
I'll be left on the outside
And if colours can't be found
I'll be left on the outside
And I can't find the words to say
So I remain the same
Come on, come on
Open up for me
Left on the outside
Left on the outside
Left on the outside
