Out Of This World
Frank Sinatra Sammy Davis Jr. And Dean Martin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're clear out of this world
When I'm looking at you,
I hear out of this world
The music that no mortal ever knew.

You're right out of a book,
The fairy tale I read when I was so high;
No armoured knight out of a book
Could find a more enchanted Lorelei than I.

After waiting so long for the right time,
After reaching so long for a star,
All at once from the long and lonely night time,
And despite time, here you are!

I'd fly out of this world
If you said we were through,
So let me fly out of this world




And spend the next eternity or two with you;
I'll spend the next eternity or two with you.

Line by Line Meaning

You're clear out of this world
You are extraordinary and beyond this world.


When I'm looking at you,
When I gaze upon you,


I hear out of this world
I hear something that transcends the mortal world,


The music that no mortal ever knew.
A heavenly music that can only be experienced beyond death.


You're right out of a book,
You are like a character straight out of a storybook,


The fairy tale I read when I was so high;
A fable from my childhood fantasies,


No armoured knight out of a book
No brave hero out of a storybook,


Could find a more enchanted Lorelei than I.
Could find a more enchanted and bewitching paramour than you.


After waiting so long for the right time,
After waiting for so long for the opportune moment,


After reaching so long for a star,
After striving for so long to reach for the stars,


All at once from the long and lonely night time,
Suddenly, from the long and lonesome darkness,


And despite time, here you are!
And yet, despite the limitations of time, you are here with me now!


I'd fly out of this world
I would willingly leave this world,


If you said we were through,
If you were to end our relationship,


So let me fly out of this world
Allow me to join you in your transcendence,


And spend the next eternity or two with you;
And enjoy countless eons of blissful coexistence by your side.


I'll spend the next eternity or two with you.
I am dedicated to spending an endless amount of time with you.
