Pearl Orient - Je Serais (Ta Meilleure Amie) lyrics

You close the door in front of me, I wait patiently outside

But as the minutes tick away I feel the anger rise

Who's the object of this rage, who's not being fair

Is it you for your indifference or me for just standing there

CHORUS:

In my mind the room beyond is bathed in golden light

I dream about you through the day and I toss and turn at night

Sometimes it's hard to understand, they say that pride's a sin

Should I go or should I stay on the outside looking in

I didn't make the grade today and I'm not the only one

But my heart, it won't stop hurting and feeling all alone

Maybe we'll trade places in some not too distant year

I'll hear your voice calling out, I'll cover up my ears

CHORUS

I could brag on things I've done or the places I have been

But I never found a cure for on the outside looking in

Sometimes it's hard to understand, they say that pride's a sin

Should I go or should I stay on the outside looking in
