Rosanne Cash - On The Inside lyrics

We crawled night and day through the tears and debries Now I'm reaching out to you but I'm keeping my hands clean The tables are turning the tempo slows down And we're gettin' off this misery-go-round It's a brand new world baby now things have changed A brand new picture in a brand new frame A turn of the page with a blink of your eye Our two steps in rhythm our hearts beatin' time On the inside it all happened on the inside it all went down on the inside A critical moment I know you'd agree both of us separate but neither one free We traded our papers for new walking shoes But I had no idea how I'd feel without you We watched it unravel we heard it unwind imprisoned by anger embittered by time No one could tell me we'd be standing here today Steeled by the fire and sealed by the pain On the inside it all happened on the inside it all went down on the inside I'm holding on to you and I know you're holding on to me too We gave it one more chance and found the key to romance Now none of it happens like we think it should be Hey it'd all be disaster if left up to me By the power of love and protection divine We found we hold hands through the darkness and then there was light On the inside it all happened on the inside it all went down on the inside On the inside it all happened on the inside it all went down on the inside
