Help Me With a Song Title ......... thanks

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

I have searched up the lyrics I think are right . But no joy

It's an oldish song , maybe 80s/90s
Female vocal
Jolly tune

Ok the lyrics I think I know could be utter shite though

'So I'm standing on the outside looking inside where I want to be

'Loves a lie...loves a lie...loves a lie ..cos he's not here'

'He's got a crush on my best friend but she don't care cos she's with someone else ....

Searches of lyrics are giving me Neil Sedaka and Taylor Swift

Anyone decipher my rambly mindthoughts ?
TIA

Loves Unkind Donna Summer.

Loves Unkind by Donna Summer!

Well I seem him every morning in the schoolyard
When the school bell rings
And when he passes in the hallway
Well he doesn't seem to notice me
He's got a crush on my best friend
But she don't care, 'cause she loves someone else
I'm standing on the outside, no the inside where I wanna be
Love's unkind, love's unkind
Love's unkind, love's unkind
'Cause he's not mine
Just the other day I was praying that he'd give me a chance
Hoping he would choose me for his partner
For the high school dance
I was standing outside the class
But it wasn't me, but my best friend, he asked
I went running back inside teary-eyed
And left the two of them behind
Love's unkind, love's unkind
Love's unkind, love's unkind
'cause he's not mine
Oh, how I love him, but I can't even let him know
'cause he loves my best friend
But she don't care, she loves someone else
And I asked my mama, and she said: love's unkind
Love's so unkind
She said: just keep it alive
'Cause you may find love's unkind
Love's unkind, love's unkind
Love's unkind, love's unkind
Oh, Why did I have to love him so
Why did I have to love him so

Love these threads.
I've no idea myself but hope the pp's are correct.

Brilliant pop song -

Yes!!!
Thank You

I was a bit off with the lyrics which was why my search gave me no joy

But 1977

Glad to help.

Donna was a fantastic singer and beautiful woman.

Great song, I love Donna Summer.
