On the Outside Looking In.

 

I am on the outside looking in.

Left wondering what could have been.

If I had been dealt a winning hand.

I could be wearing your wedding band.

 

The man you are holding in your arms.

Is the man who you he charmed.

He gives you everything I never could.

The reasons you left me I understood.

 

I can see you are in a very good space.

 I love you so that brings a smile to my face.

I still have resentment bitterness and jealousy.

That eases when you look so happy.

 

In my crazy mind I think it could have worked.

If you had listened when I had talked.

We could have removed all the clouds.

I think we could of worked it out.

 

I am wishing you nothing but good.

Wanting to be with you if only I could.

My heart remembers, still wanting.

As I stand on the outside looking in.
