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, and loving than 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

Wwo hearts finally colliding

When I wake up, I realize

Realize this is real life.
