Real!

You used to be that voice I found so addicting The mention of your name would make my head spin My impossible desires included a future of you and me But you didn't even know that I exist I don't want to keep my hopes up just because we met I am very well aware this probably won't happen again This high will fade off in a while And I will go on with my life All you are is a passerby An erstwhile crush from the days gone by I know better now What I want is something real What I want is something real I used to be that giddy girl who's turning 20 Fawning over you from afar because that's the closest I could get near Now we're inches apart, and I've come to terms that all I'll ever be Is a fleeting face in a crowd you'll never miss I don't want to keep my hopes up just because we met I am very well aware this probably won't happen again This high will fade off in a while And I will go on with my life All you are is a passerby An erstwhile crush from the days gone by I know better now What I want is something real What I want is something real In a parallel universe, in a story that was made for movies This chance encounter would have led us to a new beginning But this is reality, and though I am a hopeless romantic I am not giving in Because real life Needs real choices For real love This high will fade off in a while And I will go on with my life All you are is a passerby An erstwhile crush from the days gone by I know better now What I want is something real What I want is something real All I want is something real
