Out of My League
Love's Challenge: Striving Beyond My Reach
Lyrics
Yeah I got this feeling but I think Im alone
The singer feels a certain way but believes they're alone in that feeling.
your hearts my heaven but mine needs your home
Their partner's heart is a comforting place, but the singer's heart needs their partner's presence.
I'm playing on your heart strings but I think you're unstrung
The singer feels like they're trying to connect emotionally, but their partner seems emotionally distant.
so I'll stop playing before we come under
They're ceasing their efforts in connecting to avoid potential problems.
I always think, yeah,
The singer consistently contemplates the situation.
somebodies gotta win somebodies gotta give more than thee other
Expressing the idea that in a relationship, someone usually has to compromise or give more than the other.
wish I could give you,
The singer wishes they could offer more, but fear holds them back.
oh but I'm scared to live on want you
They're afraid to fully commit to what their partner might want.
give yeah, want you to give it all away
Desire for the partner to give their all in the relationship.
you are you are out of my league
Repeated chorus expressing the belief that the partner is beyond their level.
you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are aaaare
-stop riding on your luck girl
Advising the partner not to rely solely on luck in the relationship as the singer's emotional state is fragile.
coz my hearts paper thin
The singer's heart is vulnerable, easily affected.
I stop us from starting so we never give in
The singer avoids starting something deep to prevent potential heartbreak.
I'm/You're playing on your/my hearts strings
Both are emotionally invested but in an imbalanced manner.
but you're/Im unstrung and Ill/you'll stop playing
Addressing the emotional imbalance and the decision to stop the connection to avoid further emotional distress.
please tell me you're not the one
Expressing doubt about the partner's suitability for a deeper relationship.
you are you are out of my league
Repetition of the partner being out of the singer's league.
you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are aaaa
-tired of being alone
Feeling weary of being alone.
can't love you on my own
Unable to solely love their partner without reciprocity.
loves gonna hurt but somethings gotta be done
Acknowledging that love can be painful but action is necessary.
I'm tired of living alone but
The singer desires companionship and is tired of solitude.
somethings gotta be done done done done done
Reiterating the necessity for action despite the potential pain.
you are you are out of my league
Repeated assertion of the partner being beyond the singer's league.
you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are aaaa
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are out of my league
-you are you are aaaa
