Lyrics
Boy, you're reachin' out...for a lost love, a girl you knew from yesterday...it's her lost love now, you keep locked away, that keeps you going from day to day...but oh how you cried, when she walked out of your door, I thought I heard you say life wasn't worth livin' no more...'til you awake to a light, shining high from up above...you take a look inside your heart, and that's where you find her love...(short instrumental break)...Girl! you're reachin' out now, for a lost love, a boy you knew from yesterday...it's his lost love girl, you like to hide away, that keeps you on your merry way...'cause oh how he lied!, that's why you walked out of his life, still in your deepest dreams, you hold his love with all your might...for the first time in your life, you fall down on your knees...three words he couldn't say girl, have now become so clear...(instrumental break)...Now I know how hard it is, sometimes to believe...you take a look around and half the world's up the devil's sleeve! But you fight for what you love, 'cause in your heart you do believe...looks like you've won another battle, 'cause the devil's takin' heat...Yeah! we're reaching out now, for that lost love...joy will reign on judgement day...
