In The Real World - Roy Orbison

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
