Getting Real
Teenage Fanclub · Other Songs - Teenage Fanclub
Used to think that I could be there too
Watch winds of time a blowin'
But the sky won't let me feel
Got me in a real life situation
Even though the world is fakin'
And hey that dedication, ooh ooh ooh
I had a dream that I was six feet taller
I had a dream that I could be with you
Wept a world above your shoulders
'Cause a hole to search is through
Got me in a real life situation
Even though the world is fakin'
And hey that dedication, ooh ooh ooh
Got me in a real life situation
Even though the world is fakin'
And hey that dedication, ooh ooh ooh
