In Real Life

In real life, I'm wakin' up alone
It's one more night you didn't make it home
And one more time you won't pick up the phone

In real life, you never bring me flowers
When you're here, it's only for an hour
I'm gettin' used to bein' on my own

Because in (real life) you're not what I thought
(Real life) this isn't what I want
Guess things aren't always what they seem

But in my dreams, I'm wakin' up to roses
Champagne kisses, and I know it's always
Always gonna be, gonna be this way

In my dreams, you're standin' right beside me
Two hearts finally collidin'
Then I wake up and realize, realize
This is real life

(Real life) this is real life
(Real life) real life
(Real life) whoa-oh, whoa-oh
(Real life)

In real life, it doesn't always work out
People fall in love and then they fall out
Hearts can break and never make a sound

Because in (real life) you're not what I thought
(Real life) this isn't what I want
Guess things aren't always what they seem

But in my dreams, I'm wakin' up to roses
Champagne kisses, and I know it's always
Always gonna be, gonna be this way

In my dreams, you're standin' right beside me
Two hearts finally collidin'
Then I wake up and realize, realize
This is real life

Just when I thought
This was all real life could be, yeah
Somebody came along
And made my dream reality

And now in real life, I'm wakin' up to roses
Champagne kisses, and I know it's always
Always gonna be, gonna be this way

In my dreams, he's standin' right beside me
Two hearts finally collidin'
When I wake up, I realize, realize
This is real life
