The lyric on this one was written awhile back but then I decided to change the style and melody.....and as I haven't posted for a while I thought I would put this one up...I hope you enjoy it as much as I did when writing it...If you have any suggestions on it, I will welcome them gladly.......John..
Footnote by newbeginnings: I remember the morning in 2008 when John called me in Skype and said," Peg, I've got this melody that keeps going round in my head and I've captured it. I worked on it late last night and when I woke this morning, I had a lyric come to me. Let me know what you think and tell me which phrases need changing." I took several listens and came back to John and said, "It's very good, John, just the way you've written it".
I was on the Outside....John Bonner/composer~lyricist
Verse-1
Memories keep coming round of innocence
The lost and found as you played
Now all I do is think of you
still hoping that the day would come.
Verse-2
And I still think that everything
Will come to anyone who waits......believing
To see your face, to hear your voice....
Cause in the past...I had no choice at all.
Chorus:
Cause I was on the outside looking in
Standing waiting for you
An you were on the inside looking out for me
Now I can only wonder ...if I had only seen
But as the tears come falling down I know
I needed something to believe.
Verse-3
Consequences make us choose
Just never knowing what you loose completely....
To feel you slipping from my hands...
I hope one day you'll understand it all....
Chorus:
Cause I was on the outside looking in
Standing waiting for you
And you were on the inside looking out..for me
Now I can only wonder...if I had only seen
But as the tears come falling down I know...
I needed something to believe.
I will wait..I will wait.I will wait for you.....
And I will take you by the hand and help you understand....
I will wait...I will wait...I will wait for you.....
