Standing On The Outside by Leo Kottke, Mary Kottke Copyright 1975 Overdrive Music/ASCAP recorded by Leo Kottke on: 1975 "Chewing Pine" (Capitol) 1978 "Leo Kottke The Best" (Capitol) I've been on the outside loving you Seen from far away Every day that I live for you All I do or say Like the song of the whippoorwill Beneath a cloudy sky Your love stands in front of me While I go floating by People talk about how they feel But I never hear You know they only want to get along I only want you near So standing on the outside loving you Can't be so terribly bad It's awful easy to get along With what you've never had
