Realities — текст песни (Lavin Christine)

Christine Lavin
Realities
The reality of me cannot compete with the dreams you have of her.
And the love you`ve given me is not as sweet as the feelings that she stirs.
And so you turn away and you say that you`re sorry,
But you must pursue this dream, this improbable dream.
Though things have not been bad, you can`t say you`ve had
Quite as good a time as it first seemed.
The reality of me is not what you write love songs about.
You`d rather be longing from afar; you`re not as comfortable with love as
you are without.
And she`s a thousand miles gone, and that`s fine,
`Cause you`re fond of the shimmer distance brings to these things.
And tonight when you sleep you`ll keep dreaming of the love
And the happiness you`re so sure she will bring.
The reality of me is probably much like the reality of her.
By the time you find this out let`s just hope I`ve recovered from the hurt.
`Cause if I get a call that you`re all by yourself
And you`re longing for the love that we once knew.
Oh what would I do
With the reality of you?
