Real Girl

Wheatus

It has been a while since I have met a real girl.
Since I have met somebody who I wanted to tell all my secrets too.
And I was never perfect; I don’t think I ever will be…
But I will try to fix myself and stay here just in case you come along.

And all of these perfect dancing soul mate lovers,
How did they ever find each other?
Well I know that when I know you know me.
So the day when I die, I can die with a smile.
If I know that I was everything you needed, Real Girl.

I had a dream that you were spinning; and I loved the city.
I watched you from the darkness of the suburbs
In the far and then unknown.
And I was just a kid then, but you were a super hero
And too smart for all the villains in their emerald towers gunning for your soul

You were the perfect color, bright green lady.
When they hear this, they’ll know I’m crazy!
But all that I am crazy for is you.
And the day when I die, I can die with a smile.
If I know that I was everything you needed, Real Girl.

And all of the mistakes I’ve made, they write the dreams that sometimes hate me,
For I wake up to this life that I was showered, have no wife.
In this, unless you came along in the mirror called you ‘proved me wrong’.
And we’d become unstuck in time, the universe would be all yours or mine.

But it has been a while since I have met a real girl.
Since I have met somebody who I wanted to tell all my secrets too.
