[Verse 1: Jonah Marais & Jack Avery]
When you dream of free
Then that's where I'll be
You know I'm not too far
You should wait on me
You can have your way
Like the sun has day
Cast your fears away
You should reach for me
[Refrain: Corbyn Besson]
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
[Chorus: Zach Herron & Corbyn Besson]
Don't worry I'm on my way
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
Don't worry I'm on my way
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
Just like a shooting star I'll crash into your galaxy
Don't worry I'm on my way
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
[Breakdown]
[Verse 2: Corbyn Besson & Daniel Seavey]
Bet you didn't know
I can see your soul
And it's beautiful
You're so colorful
I can see you clear
You are everywhere
You live in my mind
Wanna keep you there
[Refrain: Corbyn Besson]
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
[Chorus: Zach Herron & Corbyn Besson]
Don't worry I'm on my way
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
Don't worry I'm on my way
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
Just like a shooting star I'll crash into your galaxy
Don't worry I'm on my way
Reach out for me, reach out for me, reach out for me
