Orbison Roy In The Real World lyrics

Orbison Roy
Mystery Girl
In The Real World
(Waylon Jennings/Roy Kerr)

In dreams we do so many things
We set aside the rules we know
And fly above the world so high
In great and shining rings
If only we could always live in dreams
If only we could make of life what in dreams
It seems
But in the real world
We must say real goodbyes
No matter if the love will live
Will never die
In the real world
There are things that we can't change
And endings come to us
In ways that we can't rearrange

I love you
And you love me
But sometimes we must
Let it be

In the real world
In the real world


When we were dreaming heart to heart
I wish that we had stayed right there
For when the dreamers do awake
The dreams do disappear

If only we could always live in dreams
If only we could make of life what in dreams
It seems

But in the real world

there are things that we can't change
And endings come to us
In ways
That we can't rearrange

I love you
And you love me
But sometimes we must
Let it be

In the real world
In the real world
