Love is real, it is not just in novels or the movies
It is fact and it is standing here right in front of you
So if you open your eyes, oh, what a sweet discovery
There is hope and there is joy and there is acceptance
So now let all the light that collects on your plants keep you warm, make you
smile.
And I will be there with this pen in my hand to record all the while.
And you'll be laughing so loud that the house will shake with sound,
and everything will be as new as the day it was found.
Oh, love is real, it is not just in long-distance commercials
Or something that you thought you felt back in high school
So I will turn black and white, become that horoscope you're reading
It predicts something good is on it's way
Oh and then I will send you the world green and blue in a box through the mail.
You can open it up, hold it right in your hand, and be glad that it's there, and
be glad that you're there.
And you can feel the knots in your stomach start to untie, and suddenly it's not
so hard to say you're all right.
Oh, love is real, it is not just in poetry and stories
It is truth and it will follow you everywhere you go from now on
So if you just cast off your doubt then your lips would answer for you
Oh, my darling, when you smile it is like a song and I can hear it now
And I can hear it now. And I can hear it now
