You talk about love

I know about love

It don't grow on trees

When the stars shine on me

they shine sadly

I know about love



You talk about home

This is my home

There's no bricks, no stone

When the wind comes calling 'round

who's to shelter me

Don't talk about home



And I don't know why

I'm standing on the outside and I'm looking in

And how hard I try to be there,

out of the dark and joining in,

let me in



Because Larry's gonna be there

Mary's gonna be there

Everyone will be there

Man I want to be there

Joe is gonna be there

Susan's gonna be there

Everyone will be there

So let me in



You talk about loss

I know about loss

I don't have much

But those who have more

think that I've got enough

I know about loss



You talk about me

Enough about me

'Cause I'll disappear like a child in the crowd

You won't notice that I'm not here

So let's not talk about me



And I don't know why

I'm standing on the outside and I'm looking in

And how hard I try to be there,

out of the dark and joining in,

let me in



Because Sara's gonna be there

Mel is gonna be there

David's gonna be there

Ooh I gotta be there

Dorothy's gonna be there

Martin's gonna be there

Seymour's gonna be there

So let me in



Ann is gonna there

Vince is gonna be there

Tony's gonna be there

Man I want to be there

Pam is gonna be there

Jack is gonna be there

Everyone will be there

So let me in



And I don't know why

I'm standing on the outside
