Stand Out
Morgan Wallen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴It don't matter if we're out under New York lights
Or taking in the scene on Ocean Drive
Or standing underneath that Hollywood sign
In California
I always seem to miss it all
I can't focus, I get lost
And I think you know it's all your fault
Now baby, don't ya?
You end up winning, baby
I can't just take one look
Everything around you fades to black
And just like that, I'm up
Girl you don't need stilettos
To turn them heads around
You ain't gotta worry 'bout getting lost in the crowd
Oh, baby, you're a stand out (You know I get so elevated)
Oh, there ain't no doubt (You ain't routine, so far from basic)
I wanna find a club, and wanna show you off
When we roll in, it won't take long
Every guy with a girl, yeah, they gonna take caught
Looking
And I can't blame 'em
And girl, you look famous
If I was in their shoes
I'd do the same, 'cause-
You end up winning, baby
I can't just take one look
Everything around you fades to black
And just like that, I'm up
Girl you don't need stilettos
To turn them heads around
You ain't gotta worry 'bout getting lost in the crowd
Oh, baby, you're a stand out (You know I get so elevated)
Oh, there ain't no doubt (You ain't routine, so far from basic)
I always seem to miss it all, yeah
I can't focus, I get lost
You end up winning, baby
I can't just take one look
Everything around you fades to black
And just like that, I'm up
Girl you don't need stilettos
To turn them heads around
You ain't gotta worry 'bout getting lost in the crowd
Oh, baby, you're a stand out (You know I get so elevated)
Oh, there ain't no doubt (You ain't routine, so far from basic)
You're such a stand out (You know I get so elevated)
Oh, there ain't no doubt (You ain't routine, so far from basic)
