In the real world

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

(CHORUS)
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 (CHORUS)

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
