[Instrumental] [Verse] You brush your hair behind your ear,

I lose the words I came to say.

For half a second, standing here,

I almost ask for you to stay.

Your jacket's hanging next to mine,

Your fingers resting on the sleeve.

I keep on looking for a sign,

You turn and tell me you should leave.

[Build] There's so much I could say tonight,

But nothing ever comes out right.

[Chorus] You're the girl I dream about,

The one I wake up reaching for.

I get so close to asking how

To be the one you're looking for.

You're right beside me every time,

But never close enough to keep.

One little word could cross that line—

You're still just out of reach.

[Drop] Just out of reach,

Just out of reach.

So close to me,

Just out of reach.

[Instrumental] [Verse] You send a picture of the rain,

I send a song you ought to hear.

You say you played it twice again,

I wish that meant you wanted me near.

We talk until the battery dies,

I watch the morning fill the street.

And somewhere under different skies,

You fall asleep without me.

[Instrumental] [Build] I've almost told you once or twice,

Then let the moment pass me by.

[Chorus] You're the girl I dream about,

The one I wake up reaching for.

I get so close to asking how

To be the one you're looking for.

You're right beside me every time,

But never close enough to keep.

One little word could cross that line—

You're still just out of reach.

[Drop] Just out of reach,

Just out of reach.

So close to me,

Just out of reach.

[Instrumental] [Bridge] Maybe you've been waiting too,

Maybe I've been reading wrong.

Maybe all I am to you

Is someone who sends you songs.

I could let another night

Become a chance I didn't take.

Or tell you what I hold inside,

And let the silence bend or break.

[Chorus] You're the girl I dream about,

The one I wake up reaching for.

I get so close to asking how

To be the one you're looking for.

You're right beside me every time,

But never close enough to keep.

One little word could cross that line—

You're still just out of reach.

[Drop] Just out of reach,

Just out of reach.

So close to me,

Just out of reach.

[Instrumental] [Outro] Your jacket's hanging next to mine.

I ask if you could stay this time. [Instrumental]
