The song’s lyrics convey a sense of awe and disbelief at being in a relationship with someone who seems far more desirable and out of the narrator’s league.

Lines like “She’s out of my league, league, league” and “She’s so gorgeous, it should be illegal” highlight the narrator’s feelings of inadequacy and the overwhelming beauty of the person they are with.
