Real And Unreal Lyrics

Real And Unreal lyrics

(Al Stewart)

 

 Did you ever have the feeling

 You're the only person living in the world

 And people that you see

 Are one-dimensional and never there at all

 Even just the commonplace

 Warm familiar greetings are a lie

 Their voices and their faces are as empty

 As the space beyond the sky

 

 Marilyn is walking with her scarf

 Around her head against the rain

 The doorways and the shops fill up with people

 And it's pouring down again

 A man with an umbrella seems to see her

 But he turns and looks away

 And nothing really matters 'cause there's

 Nothing that she wants to do or say

 

 CHORUS

 In the real and unreal

 In the real and unreal

 

 As she puts the key inside the door

 She's just an ordinary girl

 Did you ever have the feeling

 You're the only person living in the world

 

 CHORUS

 

 Tomorrow comes around

 And yet she doesn't feel a part of it all

 Did you ever have the feeling

 You're the only person living in the world

 Only person living in the world

 Only person living in the world
