THE OUTFIELD
i wanna lover i wanna lover i can’t control
you left me waiting left me waiting out in the cold
i know you try so hard to be so hard to get
but i can hear the way you talk under your breath
i wanna lover i wanna lover I can’t avoid
i see you picture i see your picture with other boys
the only one the only one that gives me hell
sometimes i feel like I'm just talking to myself
far away
you got me standing in the outfield
by the way
sometimes its almost like your not real
i always swore that i would get to you some day
i'm getting closer but i'm still so far away
you got me standing in the outfield
i wanna touch you i wanna touch you i lose control
i don't want another don't want another i need your soul
tonight i'm just another toy left on the floor
sometimes i feel like walking up to your front door yeah but i'm so
far away
you got me standing in the outfield
by the way
sometimes its almost like your not real
i always swore that i would get to you some day
i'm getting closer but i'm still so far away
you got me standing in the outfield
you know i want you do u wanna let me on you
if you wanna tell me why you gotta be so hard to get
you know i want you do u wanna let me on you
if you wanna tell me why you gotta be so hard to get
far away
you got me standing in the outfield
by the way
sometimes its almost like your not real
i always swore that i would get to you some day
i'm getting closer but i'm still so far away
you got me standing in the outfield
you know i want you do u wanna let me on you
if you wanna tell me why you gotta be so hard to get
you know i want you do u wanna let me on you
if you wanna tell me why you gotta be so hard to get

So crazy this song only has 54,000 views. This song is so fire.

[@icelegacylol]

this is criminally underrated wow

[@sleepingcolours]

Anyone here because they grew up listening to Boys Like Girls and want to genuinely support Martin in his new musical endeavours? He's opening for John Mayer later this year! 😲

[@eliugarcia2268]

Light & Rebellion Mr John Mayer brought me here

[@jaynamath]

Which ones Martin?

[@sleepingcolours]

That is acceptable. ;)

[@sleepingcolours]

Lead singer of BLG! Also, dude singing this haha.

[@SkyFelixMusic]

Light & Rebellion Me!!!

[@AbhikShrestha]

I was like Outfield has a new song??? Then I found out it was the other way around lol. Still the song is mesmerizing.

[@mossfreak7]

Here from the John Mayer concert at the Forum. These guys rocked.

[@brianrose3099]

So glad Bill Burr put this on his podcast! I hate new music so much that I don't even seek it out anymore, but I love this song to death. I don't know if it's what the kids these days are into, but if this was released in the 80s it would be an automatic number 1 hit. Pop radio isn't very receptive to rock and roll anymore, but I sure hope these guys catch on with the public.

[@collectingclassics]

80s top down LA driving music. love it!

[@noeliahernandez6139]

I'm here for Lisa Cimorelli, but let me tell you it was such a great decision. what a jam. xx

[@housbyrd47]

Went to a John Mayer concert and these guys opened for him. They rocked. A low key gem for sure.

[@krissylee7940]

Did the same!! 😊

[@mcleroy1967]

The 80's are alive!

[@teacheraaron26]

saw them before John Mayer in Paso Robles, CA. Incredible group!!

[@krissylee7940]

[@MrsiXX702]

[@Net-Fly]

I watched Night game last night in Paso Robles Ca. Night game opened up for John Mayer. This band is talented, good show. I appreciate their class and humble attitude. Good luck guys!! Great music...

[@Net-Fly]

The Night Game opened up for John Mayer in Paso Robles, on July 24th,2017. This band is worth seeing!! Check them out...

[@DuranLV2000]

Watched them play last night before John Mayer in Albuquerque, great show!! My new favorite band!💖

[@krissylee7940]

Same ! Heard them with John Mayer. Phoenix !

[@katelynm2885]

I cannot get this song out of my head and I love singing to it.

[@jackryanmiller]

I was hoping for another Boys Like Girls record but this will do for now!!

[@myrabonazza1414]

i know right

[@SkyFelixMusic]

Jack Miller right?????

[@jorgeherrera1074]

This is so much better than boys like girls... I liked boys like girls, but this far outweighs that music.

[@blgprincess]

[@reesespieces22]

Came here because I was looking on Boys Like Girls Twitter and saw Martin Johnson posting this. I like it! miss Boys Like Girls, but this is good. Can't wait for more.

[@michelle4519]

I had to check this song out after Lisa Cimorelli talked about it for more than a million times :D

[@juliearmymom7807]

A friend from the Middle East turned me on to this. He is right, it is amazing!!! :)

[@bradbordalampe4597]

[@lorrainenorzagaray8981]

I fell in love with these guys, when I heard them at John Mayer's AZ concert. I'm playing The Outfield on Repeat!!!

[@ishajain1909]

Martin disappears for almost 4 years, but god damn, what a come back! I'M HOOKED, so good to hear your music again, Martin!

[@crewcutter2030]

You just got to love that chorus.

[@imaputternut8059]

John Mayer sent me here. Loving it!

[@camilleboudville3043]

I heard this song and thought "wow it sounds so much like Martin from Boys Like Girls" and now I know it is!!! That makes me so happy, amazing song as always, Martin's songwriting skills never cease to amaze me.

[@wifiguy51]

Here from my Boys Like Girls love, staying for the amazing song. Such a cool song sounds like it's straight from the 80s.

[@azzy400]

I'm completely floored right now! I saw them preform tonight for John Mayer's concert, not realizing the lead singer is Martin Johnson from Boys like girls!!!! My middle School memories are coming back and I still love him!

[@camilla7598]

Best song of 2017

[@moha6119]

O M G !!!! The 80s are back !! Yeahhh :-D I love it

Martin Johnson sent me here! ;) It's good to hear his voice again! Great tune but I can't wait for new BLG though! :)

[@tonydave7008]

ironically, this sounds like a song from the 80's band The Outfield. Great stuff!

[@speedtriprr537]

Saw these guys before John Mayer in Colorado, they were great. Saw these guys open for him in Colorado and saw Lady open for him in KC. Both were awesome opening acts.

[@johnkeating2828]

[@Dreweldeenknives]

this song is amazing

[@michelerandall123]

Sounds GREAT!

[@priscillahoang8824]

I saw the title of the song and thought the band The Outfield from the 80's released an album after all these years, but instead I stumbled upon these guys. I get The Outfield's vibes from this song too! I almost thought it was them, but I guess this is a modern version of looking back in time. Very class sounding. I love it! :)

[@priscillahoang8824]

classic*

[@stevencevallos3488]

Ol' Billy Red Tamale has showed me the way!! Fucken awesome jam😎

[@dredg0r]

Great 80's vibe! Thanks Billy blue balls! (Bill Burr)

[@AirekxD]

Saw these guys open up for Mayer and man they were good! They sounded even better live! Definitely got yourself a new fan!

[@ChloeKiley]

I'd basically do anything John Mayer told me to do, but holy shit this is good!

[@nikkitots]

I'm here because of John Mayer. Just saw you guys perform at Mountain View. Great job! Looking forward to hearing more from you. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@fitzy1093]

Here cause of Johnny. Wow this song is lit. Hope you guys open at Wrigley Field!

[@stateofmindproductionsshil8597]

"THE Thursday Afternoon, Just Before Friday, Monday Morning Podkast, kid." - Ole Billy Red Nuts

[@gpateire]

Here from Bill Burr's Thursday Afternoon Just Before Friday Monday Morning Podcast (TAMMP) from May 11, 2017. "AND I'M JUST CHECKIN IN ON YA!!!" I wasn't listening to what he said before the intro to the song. Thought it was from the '80s when I heard it, then was surprised to read it was just released! Excellent work, great jam!!!

[@mazdudahmed7770]

So good and underrated !

[@michelerandall123]

I love the ....... Far Awayyyyyyyy -and- By The Wayyyyyy
