Stan Ding on the Rain - Neil Sedaka

Standing on the outside

Looking in

You know it’s been a long time

Don’t know where to begin

So much I wanna say

So much I wanna do

Friends are telling me

It’s time that you broke through

I’ve been through the hard times

Of searching soul

You know it’s been a hard climb

From rock and roll

Now I feel a need in me

So hard to explain

Now I’ve seen the joy and light

And I wanna remain

Standing on the inside

I finally broke that line

Ring around the circle

Don’t you know that it feels so fine

Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news

That I’m standing on the inside

I kicked away them blues

All the phoney faces

Stand in line

All the backslappers

Know my name this time

Now that I’ve turned the lock

Now that I’ve opened the door

I won’t be on the outside, no

Anymore

Standing on the inside

I finally broke that line

Ring around the circle

Don’t you know that it feels so fine

Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news

That I’m standing on the inside

I pushed away them blues

Now that I’ve turned the lock

Now that I’ve opened the door

I won’t be on the outside, no

Anymore

Standing on the inside

I finally broke that line

Ring around the circle

Don’t you know that it feels so fine

Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news

That I’m standing on the inside

I kicked away them blues

Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)

Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)

I kicked, I kicked, I kicked, I kicked (standing on the inside)

Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)

Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)

I kicked, I kicked, I kicked, I kicked (standing on the inside)

Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)

Standing on the inside (standing on the inside)

I’m on the inside

Standing on the inside

I kicked, I kicked, I kicked, I kicked

Babe, baby, yeah
