In Real Life (Randy Crawford)

In my dreams
He stands in the moonlight
He looks into my eyes
And tells me that he'll stay
One more night
We'll spend it together
Pretend its forever
But doesn't work that way

In real life
People say one thing
Then they'll do another

In real life
They'll break the tender heart
Of an innocent lover
Now and then

No big surprise
It happens all the time
In real life

There you go
Doesn't he need me?
How can he leave me?
Was he ever really there?

Feel so cold
Ooh what a shame now
There's no one to blame now
It's the world that is unfair

Chorus
In real life
People say one thing
Then they'll do another
In real life
They'll break it to the heart
Of an innocent lover
Now and then

No big surprise
It happens all the time
In real life

Why can't I learn my lesson
Must be a little bit slow
I guess I'll always be
The first to cry
The last to know

Chorus
In real life
People say one thing
Then they'll do another
In real life
They'll break it to the heart
Of an innocent lover
Now and then (now and then)

No big surprise
It happens all they time
In real life

(Repeat until fade)
