Alison Krauss, Union Station - A Place Outside lyrics

You close the door in front of me
I wait patiently outside
And as the minutes tick away
I feel the anger rise
And who's the object of my rage
And who's not being fair
Is it you for your indifference or
Me for just standing there

Cause in my mind the room beyond
Is bathed in golden light
I dream about you through the day and
I toss and turn at night
Sometimes it's hard to understand
When they say that pride's a sin
Should I go or should I stay
On the outside looking in

Well I didn't make the grade today
And I'm not the only one but my heart
It won't stop hurting and feeling all alone
Maybe we'll trade places in some
Not too distant year
I'll hear your voice calling out
And I'll cover up my ears

Cause in my mind the room beyond
Is bathed in golden light
I dream about you through the day and
I toss and turn at night
Sometimes it's hard to understand
When they say that pride's a sin
Should I go or should I stay
On the outside looking in

Well I could brag on the things I've
Done or the places I have been
But I never found a cure for
On the outside looking in
Sometimes it's hard to understand
When they say that pride's a sin
Should I go or should I stay
On the outside looking in
