Lyrics
REAL TIME (J. Rounds, N. Gordon)
Lookin' for a lover in real time
Ain't lookin' forward, ain't goin' back
This time, it's real time
No more hangin' on a memory
Got no more use for used-to-be
This time, it's real time
Baby let's go, let's run away
Wouldn't it be so fine
There's a midnight ferry out to Avalon
I wanna wake up in the sunshine
In real time
There's a penalty for words left unsaid
For all those dreams that get
Stuck inside your head, in your head
Thunder & lightning crashing down
Rain...I don't mind
It's real time
Baby let's go, let's run away
It's gonna be so fine
Gotta one-way ticket out to Avalon
Gonna wake up in the sunshine
In real time
