In real life I'm waking up alone
Yeah, 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
PRE-CHORUS
Because in real life
You're not what I thought
This isn't what I want
Guess things aren't always
What they seem
CHORUS
But in my dreams
I'm waking up for 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, whoa, 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
PRE-CHORUS
Because in real life
You're not what I thought
This isn't what I want
Guess things aren't always
What they seem
CHORUS
But in my dreams
I'm waking up for 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
Just when I thought this was all
Real life could be
Yeah
Somebody came along and made
My dream reality
CHORUS
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 you're standing right beside me
Two hearts finally colliding
When I wake up and realize
Realize this is real life
