Hive Open Mic 118 / Out of Reach Cover

This week's theme, "Love Hurts," was selected by our recent Spotlight Artist, @khaleesii, and I've chosen Gabrielle's song Out of Reach to go with it.
I first heard this song in the movie Bridget Jones' Diary. I fell in love with it right away. This is an amazing song, and I believe that a lot of people can relate to it at some point in their lives. It's a simple and straightforward song about giving so much love for someone till you wake up one day and discovered you were never truly loved at all. Looking back, that love was clearly not there and was always out of reach, but you failed to recognise the reality because you were blinded by your love for that person. Isn't it heartbreaking? Love does indeed hurt. I like the last part of the song though, because it speaks about moving on and believing in life after love and heartbreak.

Lyrics

Knew the signs
Wasn't right
I was stupid for a while
Swept away by you
And now I feel like a fool
So confused
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
Catch myself
From despair
I could drown
If I stay here
Keeping busy everyday
I know I will be okay
But I was
So confused
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
So much hurt
So much pain
Takes a while
To regain
What is lost inside
And I hope that in time
You'll be out of my mind
And I'll be over you
But now I'm
So confused
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach
So far
I never had your heart
Out of reach
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
Out of reach
So far
You never gave your heart
In my reach, I can see
There's a life out there
For me

Thank you @hiveopenmic and see you next week with the new theme.
