Song Lyrics

Recently I've been
Hopelessly reaching
Out for this girl
Who's out of this world
Believe me

She's got a boyfriend
He drives her round the bend
'cause he's 23
He's in the marines
He'd kill me

So many nights now
I find myself thinking
About her now

'cause obviously
She's out of my league
But how can I win?
She keeps draggin' me in
And I know I never will be good enough for her
No no,
I never will be good enough for her

Gotta escape now
Get on a plane now, yeah
Off to L A
And that's where I'll stay
For two years

Put it behind me
(I'll put it behind me)
Go to a place where she can't find me
Oh

'cause obviously
She's out of my league
I'm wasting my time
'cause she'll never be mine
And I know I never will be good enough for her
No no,
I never will be good enough for her

She's out of my hands
And I never know where I stand
'cause I'm not good enough for her
(Good enough for her)

'cause obviously
She's out of my league
I'm wasting my time
'cause she'll never be mine
And I know I never will be good enough for her

'cause obviously
She's out of my league
But how can I win?
She keeps draggin' me in
And I know I never will be good enough for her

'cause obviously
She's out of my league
I'm wasting my time
'cause she'll never be mine
And I know I never will be good enough for her
No no,
I never will be good enough for her
