Everywhere I see the signs pointing one direction
No more twists or crooked turns leaving room for doubt
Where I used to take the time for quiet and reflection
Now I only hear the noise of what I am without
I see the walking hand in hand and my eyes just want to linger
On those golden wedding bands wrapped around their fingers
By the time I turn away I feel it once again
Im back in this familiar place, outside looking in

Baby all the tears between us couldnt fill the spaces
And all the words we grasped at, they just fell away
I kept waiting on forgiveness to fix the broken places
But nothing even like it ever came my way
And tonight I drove around and the street came up before me
I took a turn and then I found this old house coming toward me
I heard the sound a heart must make when a memorys caving in
Oh baby what a hungry place, outside looking in

Its the hardest kind of need that never knows a reason
Are we such a lonely breed or just born in a lonely season
Baby its all in the eyes; its where the reckoning begins
Its where we linger like a sigh; its where we long to be pulled in
Its where we learn to say goodbye without saying anything
Just standing on the borderlines, outside looking in
