Lyrics
Verse 1:Standing on the outside looking in. Doors locked, barricaded from within, your world's off limits to me, yet in your hands you hold the key.
Verse 2:One night lady fortune smiled on me, virgin locks penetrated by the key, slowly the door opened wide and you allowed me to come inside. But then I had to leave...
Chorus: Like a thief in the night, stolen wares clutched to my side you willed me to go, oh no. And now I'm back on the outside looking within, the door's barricaded locking you in and in my haste I dropped the key, the thief was robbed knowingly.
Verse 3:And no one must know that I've been here. All must remain as it once appeared. And I shall wait for the next turning of the key, for the next time you'll be needing me. But then I'll have to leave...
Chorus:
Bridge: Yes in your hands you hold the key, illusionary safty. Wish it had remained with me.
Verse 4:Banished from your door I'm forced to roam, to leave you in a world you call your own. But now looking from the outside in, I can almost see you with my reflection, but it too has to leave,
Chorus:Like a thief in the night stolen wares clutched to it's side you willed us to go, oh no and now I'm back on the outside looking within, the door's barricaded locking you in and in my haste I dropped the key, the thief was robbed knowingly.
End: The thief was robbed knowingly. The theif was robbed.
