Outside

Outside
© Dan Montgomery FantasticYes Music BMI
I believe in what I see
What I can hold in my hand
These things make sense to me
These things I can understand
So I don't need a hundred words
When one or two will more than do
You don't need a hundred ways
For you to say what you want to say
Right now
Right now.

Streetlights have all burned out
It's been that way at least a year
But ever since I got turned out
I know my way around hear
So I don't need a dozen reasons
When there's just two for someone like you
Yeah, when you feel down, you just go town
And throw your money all around.

Last June I was a dancer
It seemed like the answer
But it hurt, so I got high
December now, it's snowing
And my marks are showing
Now I just stand outside.
Outside.

(solo)

A hole ain't really a hole
You can just step out
A soul ain't really a soul
Til it's been in doubt
And I could use a thousand bucks
And make my luck turn all around
But even with twice that much
I'd still be stuck on
This side of town.

Last June I was a dancer
It seemed like the answer
But I hurt, so I got high
December now, it's snowing
And by March I'll be showing
Now I just stand outside.
Outside.
