real life

Real life
I freeze my hands as
I close the door
To wait in line so
I can wait some more
And it's true what they say about love
Yes it's true what they say about life
And I'm taking it for all it's worth
I watch the numbers register on the postal scale
I think of your hands and calculate
How a man, desired, feels the weight of a letter
It's true what they say about me
That I'm out of my mind but
I think that you like it
So take the chance
Be reckless with me '
Cause I'm real life
And you're real life
And we're real life
We're real life
Is it pleasing
Six hundred thousand miles and all this solitude
I know what is pleasing
What I'll find beneath your new pair of glasses
I've never included a name in a song
But I'm changing my ways for you
Jonathan I need you to know
I need you to know
That I'm real life
