Standing On The Outside Of Your Shelter Lyrics

Shel Silverstein Standing On The Outside Of Your Shelter

I'm standing on the outside of your shelter
Lookin' in
While the bombs are here a-droppin' everywhere
Through the glass, you look so sweet and warm
And safe and cosy --

Have I ever told you that I care?
Have I ever told you that you're beautiful
And it hurts me so that we are now apart?

Well, I'm standing on the outside of your shelter, dear --
But I hope I'm on the inside of your heart!
