Lyrics

We jotted our names and our numbers down
I called, you held out, but you came around
Two drinks and a show
Still rolling your eyes, I know
But somehow
We're talking Real Life now

Have we come so far in so short a time?
Could this be my piece of the grand design?
We're painting the town
Still chasing the night on down
But somehow
We're talking Real Life now

Here's hoping we've all come clean
Nobody is all we seem
In a dream

But how I've contrived, I will never know
To find me a soul so simpatico
I pray you're the one
I've never had so much fun
And somehow
We're talking Real Life now
