Bruce Springsteen - Real World lyrics

Mister trouble, come walkin' this way
Year gone past feels like one long day
But I'm alive and I'm feelin' all right
Well, I run that hard
Road outta Heartbreak City
Built a roadside carnival out
Of hurt and self-pity
It was all wrong, well now I'm movin' on

Ain't no church bells ringing
Ain't no flags unfurled
Just me and you and the love we're bringing
Into the real world into the real world

I built a shrine in my heart
It wasn't pretty to see
Made out of fool's gold, memory
And tears cried
Now I'm heading over the rise
I'm searching for one clear moment
Of love and truth
I still got a little faith
But what I need is some proof tonight
I'm lookin' for it in your eyes

Ain't no church bells ringing
Ain't no flags unfurled
Just me and you and the love we're bringing
Into the real world into the real world

Well tonight I just wanna shout
I feel my soul waist deep and sinking
Into this black river of doubt
I just wanna rise and
Walk along the riverside
And when the morning comes, baby
I don't wanna hide
I'll stand right at your side
With my arms open wide

Well tonight I just wanna shout
I feel my soul waist deep and sinking
Into this black river of doubt
I just wanna rise and
Walk along the riverside
Till the morning comes
I'll stand right by your side

I wanna find some answers
I wanna ask for some help
I'm tired or running scared, baby
Let's get our bags packed
We'll take it here to hell
And heaven and back
And if love is hopeless, hopeless at best
Come on put on your party dress
It's ours tonight and we're going
With the tumblin' dice

Ain't no church bells ringing
Ain't no flags unfurled
Just me and you and the love we're bringing
Into the real world into the real world
Oh into the real world
