Out of Reach
j $ensei Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It’s so easy
You tried your luck with me and you got your way
You knew I wouldn’t leave so you felt so safe Only half the time)
Kept it tucked away
My love for you
My love
It’s so easy
You tried your luck with me and you got your way
You knew I wouldn’t leave so you felt so safe (Only half the time)
Kept it tucked away
My love for you
My love
(You’re moving like a star)
Wish you would come around here
Wish you would come around here
Solid, could’ve had you grounded
You search but never find it all
Girl can you be honest please
I know you’re out of reach
I know I’m in too deep, oh oh
Kept it inside
I should’ve kept it inside cause you don’t
Care about me
As much as I want you to, no
It’s so easy
You tried your luck with me and you got your way
You knew I wouldn’t leave so you felt so safe (Only half the time)
Kept it tucked away
My love for you
My love
It’s so easy
You tried your luck with me and you got your way
You knew I wouldn’t leave so you felt so safe (Only half the time)
Kept it tucked away
My love for you
My love
Wish you would come around here
You search but never find it
Wish you would come around here
I know you’re out of reach
It’s so easy
You tried your luck with me and you got your way
You knew I wouldn’t leave so you felt so safe (Only half the time)
Kept it tucked away
My love for you
My love
It’s so easy
You tried your luck with me and you got your way
You knew I wouldn’t leave so you felt so safe (Only half the time)
Kept it tucked away




My love for you
My love
