(Roch Voisine/James Campbell) |
|
She was a woman troubled like a river |
|
Trees all around her |
|
But I only ever came near enough |
|
To hear her voice |
|
On the outside |
|
She was a woman inside a castle |
|
Knights all around her |
|
And I never found myself strong enough |
|
To reach and touch |
|
From the outside |
|
And every time I tried to swim across |
|
I thought I'd drown |
|
And every time I tried to climb that wall |
|
I thought I'd fall |
|
On the outside |
|
She was a woman frozen in a picture |
|
Frozen there forever |
|
With a smile that keeps me so warm inside |
|
But still I hide |
|
On the outside |
|
She was a woman farther than forever |
|
Nearer not together |
|
And I only wish I was back in time |
|
'Cause she'd be mine |
|
On the outside |
|
But every time I tried to find the love I left behind |
|
And every time I tried to make her mine |
|
Again I'd find myself |
|
On the outside |
