| I wish that life was like it is in the movies
|
| Because the hero always gets his way
|
| No matter how hard it gets on that dark lonely road
|
| At the end he’s got a smile on his face
|
| But when they threw me out to the lions
|
| No one saved me as I fell from your grace
|
| And no one wrote me new lines for what I said wrong
|
| And what I did wrong I could not erase
|
| And this is real life, this is real love
|
| This is real pain, that much I’m sure of
|
| These are real tears
|
| These are real fears, inside that I can’t hide
|
| I wish that I could be your white knight in armor
|
| With an army just to bring you back home
|
| But I’ll admit I’m scared of dialing your number
|
| But someone else is gonna answer the phone
|
| Why can’t it be like it is on TV?
|
| When the orchestra plays and you come back to me
|
| This real life, this real love
|
| These are real wounds I’m bleeding from
|
| And I realize this is real
|
| I always thought that our love was a storybook tale
|
| God knows that I’d never dreamed in the end it would fail |
