Lyrics

Well, it seems so real, I can see it

And it seems so real, I can taste it

And it seems so real, I can feel it

And it seems so real, I can hear it

So why can't I touch it?

So why can't I touch it?

Well, it looks so real, I can see it

And it tastes so real, I can taste it

And it feels so real, I can feel it

And it sounds so real, I can hear it

So why can't I touch it?

So why can't I touch it?

Now it is so real, I can see it

And it is so real, I can taste it

And it is so real, I can hear it

And it is so real, I can be it

So why can't I touch it?

So why can't I touch it?
