Can't really tell you

Why it bothers me

Can't explain

Why I have these dreams

Can't understand

Why I can't make them real

But I do know

Exactly how I feel



And It pains me so

To see these fantasies

Cause I know that they

Don't work for me

I'm willing to give it all up

For one chance just to live it all up



So please let me live

Let me love

And let me give

And if I get hurt

I know I'll heal

Cause for one great moment

I finally felt real



Don't really see

Anything except

That damn silver screen

And the resons I wept

Stars in my eyes

Manufactured lies

And the way love should be

Well, that used to be me



And I want it real

And I want it true

And I want a broken heart

If it means having you



So please let me live

Let me love

And let me give

And if I get hurt

I know I'll heal

Cause for one great moment

I finally felt real
