5 What’s Real

What’s Real
Am I awake or in a dream
Can’t tell what is from what just seems
I don’t know how I should feel
’Til you tell me what’s real
You say you love me, miss me so
You say you want our love to grow
And then you turn to say goodbye
Without a touch, without a sigh
Am I awake or in a dream
Can’t tell what is from what just seems
I don’t know how I should feel
’Til you tell me what’s real
Sometimes you take me by the hand
Like this is what the gods have planned
And other times you say my name
Like every word that’s caused you pain
Am I awake or in a dream
Can’t tell what is from what just seems
I don’t know how I should feel
’Til you tell me what’s real
We’ll wake and then we’ll talk awhile
I’ll feel the sunshine of your smile
And then the night comes crashing down
And thunder is the only sound
Am I awake or in a dream
Can’t tell what is from what just seems
I don’t know how I should feel
’Til you tell me what’s real
You set me soaring with a kiss
You sing us down the road to bliss
And then you find another song
Whose lyrics say that we’re all wrong
Am I awake or in a dream
Can’t tell what is from what just seems
I don’t know how I should feel
’Til you tell me what’s real
