Came a time in my life I had to be free From all of the lies that used to be me And the only way out is the only way in and it's you I've been waisting my time but not anymore I've been through the maze and it lead to your door And the only way out is the only way in and it's you I spent a lot of time at the crossroads Getting that lonely feeling inside Suddenly you stopped the rain, you changed the view Now every way's leading to you Let's get this thing going, let's move it along Let me do all the things I've been missing so long 'cause the only way out is the only way in and it's you, oh I spent a lot of time at the crossroads Getting that lonely feeling inside Suddenly you made the rescue, you pulled me through Now let me do something for you Let's get this thing going, let's move it along Let's do all the things I've been missing so long And the only way out is the only way in and it's you Yeah the only way out is the only way in and it's you Yeah the only way out is the only way in and it's you Only way out is the only way in The only way out is the only way in Is the only way in The only way out is the only way in
