Lyrics On The Way Out (On The Way In) - Jimmy Ruffin

On The Way Out (On The Way In)

Oh, I’m on the way out of love
I’m on the way in
To heartache and sorrow
I can feel it begin
Looking back at love
Closing its door
Watching heartache open up
'Cause I have love no more
Oh, oh, baby
The final word’s been said
Her footsteps fade away
She’s walking towards her future
I’m left in yesterday
The shadows wait ahead
My life is almost dark
No more will she walk beside me
So into the dark I start
Saying, «Where to now?»
I hear myself sadly cry out
But I found out
And now there is no doubt
That I’m on the way out of love
I’m on the way in
To heartache and sorrow
I can feel it begin
Looking back at love
Closing the door
Watching heartache open up
'Cause I have love no more
There’s no regrets
I’ve had my time
But still, I think of all the days
That I have called her mine
But let me have just one more look
So I can keep
Inside my heart a memory
Of how love used to be
And let me hear her tender voice
Whispering once more
To touch her hand and kiss her lips
Because that’s forever
And I’ll go sad but proud
To have known the joy that only love gives
Guess, I found out
Of my wrong she won’t forgive
So I’m on the way out of love
I’m on the way in
To heartache and sorrow
I can feel it begin
Looking back at love
Closing the door
Watching heartache open up
'Cause I have love no more
And I’m on the way out
You know I’m on my way in
Oh, baby, I’m on my way
(Heartache and sorrow
I can feel it, feel it)
Can’t you see it, can’t you see it, baby?
(Looking back at love)
Said it’s closing the door
Watching heartache open up
'Cause I have love no more
And I’m on the way
You know I’m on, on, on, on, on my way, baby
