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
