Real Love Lyrics - Nomeansno

~~~~~~~~~~ 

Real love is scary 

You try to hide when it looks for you 

You never know what it will do 

Not real love 

Not real love 

Real love is a long stone bed, he said 

His face a mask of indifference 

And it don't care about me or you 

Not real love 

Not real love 

Real love on a sunny day 

Is a crow on a telephone pole 

With something to say 

And you feel like someone 

Has just walked on your grave 

That's real love 

That's real love 

The glory of love 

The glory of love 

That precious rain 

That falls from above 

First a gentle murmur 

That calls from the heart 

And then a great wind 

That will blow you apart 

That's real love 

That's real love 

Like a ghost it will pass right through you 

A spirit that lives on 

When you are through 

And there is nothing that you can do 

The wind in the trees 

The smell of wet leaves 

The rumble of a passing truck 

A streak of blood 

Please forgive me for what I've done to you 

And lord forgive me for what I'm going to do 

In the name of... 

Real love is scary 

You try to hide when it looks for you 

You never know what it will do 

And it don't care about me or you 

And there is nothing you can do about 

Real love 

Anyway, that's what I heard a crow say 

But who cares what a crow say anyway? 

Especially about something, something 

Something so strictly personal 

(Real love) 

Can you feel it? 

Can you feel it? That wind on your face 

You can get down on your knees and pray 

But nothing that you do or say 

Will make it go away 

(Real love) 

It's like thunder, like lightning 

The way you love me 

The way you love me 

The way you love me 

It's frightening
