In The Real World Lyrics - Alan Parson Project

One more compromise I won't be making 

One more easy way out I won't be taking 

So many chances don't come twice 

So many eyes are made of ice 

One more cheating hand I won't be shaking 

One more substitute I won't be trying 

One more piece of the rock that I'm not buying 

So many times we stand and fight 

So many reasons can't be right 

One more simple truth I'm not denying 

Too many lonely hearts in the real world 

Too many lonely nights in the real world 

Too many fools who don't think twice 

Too many ways to pay the price 

Don't wanna live my life in the real world 

One more sacrifice I won't be making 

One more golden rule I won't be breaking 

No one to let me state my case 

No one to tell me to my face 

One more sweet surprise I won't be faking 

Too many lonely hearts in the real world 

Too many lonely nights in the real world 

Too many bridges you can burn 

Too many tables you can't turn 

Don't wanna live my life in the real world 

Too many lonely hearts in the real world 

Too many lonely nights in the real world 

Too many games that I can't play 

Too many windmills in my way 

Don't wanna live my life in the real world
