Jamie's Elsewhere - Out Of Love Lyrics






I remember a phone call, a quarter past nine
When you said, "this can't be," and you started to cry
And I could tell by your actions, and words that you spoke,
That you'd lost someone close, and your heart was half broken

And, oh, my God, do you do this out of love,
When you hold them in your arms and take them away from us?

You left us here alone, your old house just a shell.
Like a crab in the sea, you've moved on to another.
Well I know a few things, like, you're terribly missed.
And the whole time in the hospital, I kept thinking this:

That, oh, my God, how can you do this out of love,
When you hold them in your arms and take them away from us?

Well I finally broke down and started to cry.
I said "Was heaven not full enough, was that your reason why?"
I didn't wipe my tears, I let them dry like salt on my eyes,
Because I'm all out of answers; a pillar crumbling from the inside.
But I tried to be strong and be brave for you,
But I'm just a man, just as torn up as you.
But, I promise when you wake that everything will be fine.
When you wake the next morning, your heart will beat in time, and you'll say

Oh, my God, you do this out of love,
When you hold them in your arms and take them away from us.

I hope when it's my time that you can wake me from my sleep,
And say "It's time to go child," but no I won't weep
I'll say, "Make sure that they know this more importantly than others,
That I was a good son, husband, father, and brother."
And, I want you to be there when they talk to the doctors,
When they think all is lost, that you help them discover
That Heaven won't be full until all of us are there, when we're all together.
For now, just share with them:

That, oh, my God, you do this out of love,
When you hold them in your arms and take them away from us.

  1. D.... o....

    This song should have been called 'Goosebumps and Tears' haha. ;-; It's so amazing. <3<3<3

  2. D.... S....

    Good stuff indeed.

  3. H.... T....

    Such a simple (musically speaking) song but so beautiful!

  4. S.... ....

    This is beautiful.

  5. R.... N....

    Soo beautiful...

  6. k.... -....

    4:15. that is all.

  7. Z.... ....

    Thank you!

  8. Z.... ....

    Can someone please tell me the chords to this? There have been a lot of people from my school lately. And I want to sing this at my church and hopefully this will make some people feel better.
    Because this is a beautiful song which I dedicate to my Grandfather who died of Cancer.

  9. N.... R....

    Kinda reminds me of One Man Drinking Games mixed with some City and Colour.

  10. N.... B....

    I knew a guy who actually took credit to this song when his dad passed away. He told everyone that he wrote this song.. some people are so screwed in the head it's ridiculous.

  11. c.... ....

    I think, given the personal nature of the song, it's fitting for the song to end as it does. Just my thoughts though.

  12. d.... ....

    bye Aaron

  13. d.... ....

    Where can I get this EP!?

  14. G.... ....

    i don't understand the Reimagined ep or album or whatever you would call it. In their "they said a storm was coming" album, they are all loud and stuff but in this it's kinda acoustic.
    Are they the same band just trying out new things? or is this a different singer altogether?

    G.... ....

    It's the acoustic version of the album "They said a storm was coming". It's made to be sweeter and more emotional

    G.... ....

    Says it in the title. REIMAGINED

  15. R.... T....

    Most beautiful thing I've ever heard :')

  16. B.... R....

    i think the hollow sound adds more to the feel of the whole song. idk i personally like this better, i tear up almost every time i listen too it

  17. B.... R....

    i definitely had a man tear running down my face. so good <3

  18. M.... Y....

    Extended play -CDs that contain more than one single,and less then 8 tracks which are too short to qualify as albums.

  19. r.... m....

    whats ep stand for

  20. D.... ....

    @manboy49 Hahaha!! i was totally waiting for it to come in too mainly from the feel of it but i was wrong too hahahahaha!!!

  21. M.... D....

    this song is really sad :'c i think it's about aaron's girlfriend's father

  22. D.... S....

    i really like heavy eyelids heavy heart too. The new ep was a good idea for sure.

  23. S.... S....

    Beautiful song but i think the acoustic version Aaron Pauly did on flippinmusictv youtube search - ( "Jamie's Elsewhere - Out of Love (FlippenMusic Acoustic Session") was better. Less hollow sounding vocals.

  24. D.... S....

    beautiful song
