Real Life Lyrics by Lanterns On The Lake

Versions of Us

2023

When my real life starts like I’ve always thought
Oh, the things I’ll be
“You’ve been living in your head too long,” they said
And now I think about that all the time
I’m going to ride like a knight in the saddle of life
No more watching from the cheap seats
All that I’ve fantasised will be colourised
When my real life starts, that is
I’m going to whisper in your ear now
Tell you all the wrong I’ve done
In a life of wasted years
While I was waiting for the real one
Now that you know, how could you look away?
More than you know I was always thinking of
Thinking of you
Whеn my real life starts
Oh, you’ll see
No more of this comatosе daydream, no
I wouldn’t even call that, call that living
I’m going to whisper in your ear now
Tell you all the wrong I’ve done
In a life of wasted years
While I was waiting for the real one
Now that you know, how could you look away?
More than you know I was always thinking of
Thinking of you
I’ve never been quite in the moment, I think I’ll give it a try
I’ve never been quite in the moment, I think I’ll give it a
I think I’ll give it a…
I’m going to whisper in your ear now
Tell you all the wrong I’ve done
In a life of wasted years
While I was waiting for the real one
Now that you know, how could you look away?
More than you know I was always thinking of
Thinking of
Thinking of
Thinking of you
