Our hearts were young
And our dreams were brave and free
We walked through fire
We swam in stormy seas

Now years have gone
And there's caution in our ears
So we hide like strangers
Or lovers scared to hear

Real love it'll break your heart
It'll go too far
It'll take so long
Real love it'll tear you apart
It'll be this hard when you love someone
Real love

We move in circles
Our old familiar game
We twist and turn
We waste the hours away

Real love it'll break your heart
It'll go too far
It'll take so long
Real love it'll tear you apart
It'll be this hard when you love someone
Real love

Now sunday comes
And another week begins
Well this time maybe we'll learn to meet again

Real love it'll break your heart
It'll go too far
It'll take so long
Real love it'll tear you apart
It'll be this hard when you love someone
Real love
It'll be this hard when you love someone real love
