Real Life

We lived in a world of beautyful lies

Where you're fool enough to think you're wise

Feeling so sure

Love will endure

Like a shining star against the night

We saw love as clear as black and white

We looked to a dream to carry us through

But that's more than dreams can ever do

Promises made

Easily fade

And there's nothing left to do or say

We just close the door and walk away

'Cause in real life

It's never what it seems

In real life

We struggle in between

The hard truth

And the promise of a dream

In real life

Oh, it's never what it seems

In real life

Oh, in real life

Now, I've seen the light and you know the score

Love can't blind us like it did before

Swear we won't make

The same old mistake

But no matter how we try to be

We're just seeing what we want to see

And in real life

It's never what it seems

In real life

We struggle in between

The hard truth

And the promise of a dream

In real life

Oh, it's never what it seems

I real life

Oh, in real life

In real life

It's never what it seems

In real life

We struggle in between

The hard truth

And the promise of a dream

In real life

Oh, it's never what it seems

I real life

Oh, in real life

'Cause in real life

It's never what it seems

In real life

We struggle in between

The hard truth

And the promise of a dream

In real life

Oh, it's never what it seems

I real life

Oh, in real life
