One more compromise I won't be making
One more easy way out I won't be taking.
So many chances don't come twice,
So many eyes are made of ice.
One more cheating hand I won't be shaking.

One more substitute I won't be trying,
One more piece of the rock that I'm not buying.
So many times we stand and fight,
So many reasons can't be right.
One more simple truth I'm not denying.

Too many lonely hearts in the real world,
Too many lonely nights in the real world.
Too many fools who don't think twice,
Too many ways to pay the price.
Don't want to live my life in the real world.

One more sacrifice I won't be making
One more golden rule I won't be breaking.
No one to let me state my case,
No one to tell me to my face,
One more sweet surprise I won't be faking. 
 Too many lonely hearts in the real world,
Too many lonely nights in the real world.
Too many bridges you can burn,
Too many tables you can turn
Don't want to live my life in the real world.

Too many lonely hearts in the real world,
Too many lonely nights in the real world.
Too many games that I can't play,
Too many windmills in my way.
Don't want to live my life in the real world.

Too many lonely hearts in the real world,
Too many lonely hearts
Too many lonely nights in the real world.
Too many lonely nights
Don't want to live my life in the real world.
Too many lonely hearts in the real world,
Too many lonely hearts in the real world,
Don't want to live my life ............
