Reach Out
BB Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now if you feel that you can't go on
Because all of your hope is gone,
And your life is filled with much confusion
Until happiness is just an illusion,
And your world around is crumblin' down
Darling, reach out (come on girl, reach on out for me)
Reach out (reach out for me)
I'll be there, with a love that will shelter you
I'll be there, with a love that will see you through

When you feel lost and about to give up
'Cause your best just ain't good enough
And you feel the world has grown cold,
And you're drifting out all on your own,
And you need a hand to hold
Well darling, reach out (come on girl, reach out for me)
Reach out (reach out for me)
I'll be there, to love and comfort you,
And I'll be there, to cherish and care for you
And I'll be there, to cherish and care for you
I'll be there to love and comfort you

I can tell the way you hang your head,
You're without love and now you're afraid
And through your tears you look around,
But there's no peace of mind to be found.
I know what you're thinkin' you're alone now
No love of your own
But darling, reach out (come on girl, reach out for me)
Reach out (reach out for me)
Just look over your shoulder honey

I'll be there, to give you all the love you need




And I'll be there, you can always depend on me
I'll be there, to give you all the love you need
