Robbie Dupree - In Real Life lyrics

There she goes doesn't she need me?
How could she leave me?
She was never really there it feels so cold
Ooh, what a shame now
There's no one to blame now
It's the world that isn't fair

In real life
People say one thing, then they do another
In real life they break what's in the heart
Of an innocent lover
Now and then, no big surprise
It happens all the time in real life

Time goes by it slips through our fingers
But something still lingers
'Cause my heart wants her to stay
Just one more night we'll spend it together
Pretend it's forever
But it doesn't work that way

In real life
People say one thing, then they do another
In real life they break the tender heart
Of an innocent lover
Now and then, no big surprise
It happens all the time in real life

If love is the only answer
Why does it hurt me so?
Why must I always be the first to cry
The last to know?

In real life
People say one thing, then they do another
In real life they break the tender heart
Of an innocent lover
Now and then, no big surprise
It happens all the time in real life

People say one thing, then they do another
In real life they break the tender heart
Of an innocent lover
Now and then, no big surprise
It happens all the time in real life
