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
