Out Of This World
Payne Freda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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.
The first verse of "Out of This World" expresses the singer's amazement at the beauty and uniqueness of the person they are looking at. The singer is so struck by the person's appearance that they feel as though they are hearing music that no one else has ever heard before. This serves to show the person's ethereal quality and suggests that they are so extraordinary that they defy all normal experience. The second verse compares the person to a character from a fairy tale or a myth, emphasizing their otherworldliness further. The singer feels as though they have come across an enchanted being, something that they never believed possible.
The chorus reveals the singer's feelings and the impact this person has on them. They have waited a long time for this kind of connection, and they feel as though they have finally found it. The singer is so overwhelmed by their emotions that they would be willing to leave everything behind and spend the rest of their existence with this person. The song ends with a repetition of this sentiment, emphasizing that the singer's feelings are genuine and unwavering.
Overall, "Out of This World" is a love song that speaks to the unparalleled nature of true love. The lyrics suggest that sometimes, we meet someone who is so special that they have a transformative effect on our lives. While this connection may seem otherworldly, it is authentic and powerful, making it worth pursuing at all costs.

You're clear out of this world
You are exceptional, extraordinary
When I'm looking at you,
Whenever I see you
I hear out of this world
I hear something incredibly unique and special
The music that no mortal ever knew.
A sound that transcends human understanding and experience.
You're right out of a book,
You are like a character from a fairy tale
The fairy tale I read when I was so high;
A story I read when I was young and hopeful
No armoured knight out of a book
No fictional hero
Could find a more enchanted Lorelei than I.
Could ever find a more magical and captivating person than you.
After waiting so long for the right time,
After a considerable amount of time waiting for the perfect moment
After reaching so long for a star,
After striving for something out of reach
All at once from the long and lonely night time,
Suddenly and despite any past feelings of loneliness
And despite time, here you are!
Even after so much time has passed, you are finally here.
I'd fly out of this world
I would be overcome with intense emotion
If you said we were through,
If you said we were no longer together
So let me fly out of this world
Let me be with you in eternity
And spend the next eternity or two with you;
Spend an indefinite amount of time with you, forever and then some.
I'll spend the next eternity or two with you.
I am committed to being with you for an infinite amount of time.
