Outside Man Songtext
von The Dingoes
Outside Man Songtext
Oh my friend, you lover of life
You run around the open road
Now they tied you down with a prisoner′s crown
So where you gonna go?
You said all of my life I've been a fool
Been escaping through an open door
Now they hold the key and they′re stopping me
I can't hear you anymore
You're an outside man
Now your bridges are burning
Every time that you look around
Your whole world is turning
You gotta make a stand
It′s time for you to face the facts
The curtain′s slowly coming down
On the final act
You're an outside man
You were tossed by the wind of fortune and grace
And cast upon a foreign shore
You were made to face the last leg of the race
And now you know the score
You′ll look with his heart
Or look with his mind
Or look with the swirl of his brow
But when you hide behind false alibis
I think you know by now
You're an outside man
Now your bridges are burning
Every time that you look around
Your whole world is turning
You gotta make a stand
It′s time for you to face the facts
The curtain's slowly coming down
On the final act
You′re an outside man
Oh my friend, you lover of life
You run around the open road
Well my friend, you've reached the end
I can't hear you anymore
You′re an outside man
Now your bridges are burning
Every time that you look around
Your whole world is turning
You gotta make a stand
It′s time for you to face the facts
The curtain's slowly coming down
On the final act
You′re an outside man
An outside man
You run around the open road
Now they tied you down with a prisoner′s crown
So where you gonna go?
You said all of my life I've been a fool
Been escaping through an open door
Now they hold the key and they′re stopping me
I can't hear you anymore
You're an outside man
Now your bridges are burning
Every time that you look around
Your whole world is turning
You gotta make a stand
It′s time for you to face the facts
The curtain′s slowly coming down
On the final act
You're an outside man
You were tossed by the wind of fortune and grace
And cast upon a foreign shore
You were made to face the last leg of the race
And now you know the score
You′ll look with his heart
Or look with his mind
Or look with the swirl of his brow
But when you hide behind false alibis
I think you know by now
You're an outside man
Now your bridges are burning
Every time that you look around
Your whole world is turning
You gotta make a stand
It′s time for you to face the facts
The curtain's slowly coming down
On the final act
You′re an outside man
Oh my friend, you lover of life
You run around the open road
Well my friend, you've reached the end
I can't hear you anymore
You′re an outside man
Now your bridges are burning
Every time that you look around
Your whole world is turning
You gotta make a stand
It′s time for you to face the facts
The curtain's slowly coming down
On the final act
You′re an outside man
An outside man
