Foreigner - Real World lyrics

Days, times we will remember

When innocence was lost

We let our hearts move on

So many dreams we thought would last forever

Today it doesn't matter

All those dreams are gone, they are gone, oooh

Tell me how it feels again

Oh, show me that it's real and then

I'll walk away, from my own reflection

The stranger that I knew

The stranger that was you

And now I face a cold return to sender

A truce but no surrender

A voice that won't ring true, where are you? oooh

I reach over the edge

And throw a penny in the wishing well

It's so deep that I can tell

That in the real world

There's fewer stars in the sky

And in the real world

You can get hear children cry at night

This is the real world

There is no time, for a life of solitude

Only hunger and survival

In the world we were born into, we're alone, oooh

And it brings me to my knees

Our father lay me down to sleep

Father please

Pray the lord my soul to keep

Keep us in the real world

Keep us in the real world

Don't have to tell you

In the real world

They'll damn you if you try

In the real world

Let it begin with you and i

This is the real world

There's fewer stars in the sky

This is the real world

You can get hear children cry at night

Now in the real world

They'll damn you if you try

And in the real world

Let it begin with you and i

Living in the real world

Yeah, living in the real world
