Outside Looking In — текст песни (Gerry Rafferty)

It looked so good
From the outside
I couldn`t want to join the crowd
It all looked different on the inside
It must have been my immigration
Cause that`s for sure that where I wanted to

I thought I`d get out of the city
I took a trip down to the sea
I didn`t stay too long
Because there was nothing there but sky and ocean
So it must have been my imagination
Calling out that there was where I wanted to be

Looking for something that might offer meaning
Looking for something that might make me feel alright
Alright yer!
Looking around for the right situation
Where I could believe what`s happening
right in front of my eyes baby

I think I`ll stay in one position
And just leave well enough alone
I`m never satisfied to love in disillusion
Oh yer it must be my imagination
Promising there`s a better place to be

Looking for something that might offer meaning
Looking for something that might make me feel alright
Alright yer!
Looking around for the right situation
Where I could believe what`s happening
right in front of my eyes baby
