In real life, I'm waking up alone
And 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 getting used to being 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 waking up to roses
Champagne, kisses and I know
It's always, always gonna be
Gonna be this way
In my dreams you're standing right beside me
Two hearts finally colliding
Then I wake up
And realize, realize, this is real life
Real life, this is real life
Real life (real life)
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 waking up to roses
Champagne, kisses and I know
It's always, always gonna be
Gonna be this way
In my dreams you're standing right beside me
Two hearts finally colliding
Then I wake up
And realize, realize, this is real life
Real life, this is real life
Just when I thought this was all real life could be yeah
Somebody came along and made the dream reality
And now in real life I'm waking up to roses
Champagne, kisses and I know
It's always, always gonna be
Gonna be this way
In my dreams he's standing right beside me
Two hearts finally colliding
When I wake up, I realize
Realize this is real life
