Real World 04:10
REAL WORLD Somewhere between the past and now Values changed, new things came down. Low ideals are passed around Hearts beat but make no sound. We just say This is the Real World Not quite make believe here in the Real World you see. Live in the Real World But don’t make believe this is the Real World for me. Corporate kings will play their games Hungry for power and slightly insane. Techno monsters leave their trace Until it’s too hard to escape The fact that This is the Real World Not quite make believe here in the Real World you see. Live in the Real World But don’t make believe this is the Real World for me. Heroes and villains measure fists And Sleeping Beauty’s never kissed. But there’s a movie in my mind not like this Where happy endings still exist. And I say This is the Real World Not quite make believe here in the Real World you see. Live in the Real World But don’t make believe this is the Real World for me.

HELLO, I LOVE YOU Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game She's walking down the street Blind to every eye she meets Do you think you'll be the guy To make the queen of the angels sigh? Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name? Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game She holds her head so high, like a statue in the sky Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long When she moves my brain screams out this song Sidewalk crouches at her feet Like a dog that begs for something sweet Do you hope to make her see you fool? Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel? Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello I want you, hello, I need my baby Hello, hello, hello, hello Songwriters: James Morrison / John Densmore / Ray Manzarek / Robby Krieger Hello, I Love You lyrics © Doors Music Company
