Inside To Outside
Kajagoogoo & Limahl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is it your alluring way?
Could you always drown the fire?
Keep a check on all you feel
Keep a hold on your desire
But I feel there?s something new
And it?s lying in your eyes
There?s a shudder running through...
(CHORUS)
Inside turning to outside
The feeling you can?t hide
Is touching a high-light in your eyes
Inside turning to outside
It?s gonna be alright
It?s runnin? a high for you and I
(VERSE 2)
Like a shadow of yourself
Like a spirit in the air
Looking desp?rately for help
You?ve been looking everywhere
My heart is beating fast
Blue eyes are locked on mine
A vision flashes past
Moving me in time
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Inside turning to outside
The feeling you can?t hide
Is touching a high-light in your eyes
Inside turning to outside
It?s gonna be alright
It?s runnin? a high for you and I
(MIDDLE)
And we can live in a beautiful world
Hide away under peaceful skies
We can survive on time and a word
Feel the nights passing by...
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Inside turning to outside
The feeling you can?t hide
Is touching a high-light in your eyes
Inside turning to outside
It?s gonna be alright
It?s runnin? a high for you and I
(TO FADE)
The lyrics of Kajagoogoo's song "Inside to Outside" express the feelings of a person who has seen a change in someone they know - perhaps a friend or a loved one. The change is significant enough that the person is unable to ignore it, and it is reflected in their eyes. The song speaks of the internal conflict of the person in question - they are trying to suppress their feelings and desires, but there is something new brewing inside of them that they may not be able to hold back for long.
The chorus of the song talks about how the person's internal struggle is slowly transitioning to the outside - it is becoming more visible to everyone around them, including the singer of the song. Despite this realization, the person singing the song reassures the subject that everything is going to be alright, that they are in this together and they will enjoy the high that this new change brings.
The middle section of the song speaks of the possibilities of a beautiful world, where the two can co-exist under peaceful skies, survive on "time and a word," and feel the nights passing by. It is possible that the song speaks about a budding romance, where the feelings of both people are slowly coming to the surface, and it is offering encouragement that together they can make it work.

Is it your alluring way?
Are you intentionally captivating me with your manner?
Could you always drown the fire?
Can you consistently suppress your true emotions and desires?
Keep a check on all you feel
Make sure you control your emotions at all times
Keep a hold on your desire
Don't let your wants and needs take over
But I feel there's something new
I sense a new dynamic forming between us
And it's lying in your eyes
I can see that you feel it too, based on your eyes
There's a shudder running through...
I see you trembling with anticipation
You... now I realize
Now it's clear to me that we're both feeling this way
Inside turning to outside
Our inner emotions are showing outwardly
The feeling you can't hide
We can't conceal our feelings anymore
Is touching a high-light in your eyes
I can tell that the feeling is making you joyful
It's gonna be alright
Everything is going to work out
It's runnin' a high for you and I
Both of us are experiencing a rush of emotions
Like a shadow of yourself
You appear to be losing your true identity
Like a spirit in the air
You seem to be floating through life with a lack of direction
Looking desp'rately for help
You're searching for guidance and support
You've been looking everywhere
You've been trying many different things to find what you're looking for
My heart is beating fast
I'm feeling excited and exhilarated
Blue eyes are locked on mine
You're intently focusing on me and our connection
A vision flashes past
A beautiful image quickly enters my mind
Moving me in time
This feeling is making me feel like I'm transcending time and space
And we can live in a beautiful world
We can create a wonderful life together
Hide away under peaceful skies
We can escape from the stresses of life together
We can survive on time and a word
We can make it through anything with just each other
Feel the nights passing by...
Let's experience life together and cherish the moments that pass us by
