Lyrics "Real" Look at me I'm twenty three Beautiful a sight to see Tonight A little dress to draw the press And I'll be leaving All the rest behind Well be pleased girl If this is what you wanted The whole world is watching you take the stage What will you say Aren't I lovely And do you want me cause I am hungry for something that will make me real Can you see me and Do you love me cause I am desperately searching for something Real I close my eyes imagine time Will not forget My sacrifice I numb the ache and decorate My emptiness Stand naked in the light Well be pleased world If this is what you wanted This young girl is everything that you made What will she say Aren't I lovely And do you want me cause I am hungry for something that will make me real Can you see me and Do you love me cause I am desperately searching for something Real The world goes home The lights go down My lipstick fades Away And do you want me cause I am hungry for something that will make me real Can you see me and Do you love me cause I am desperately searching for something Real [repeats]
This played on Walmart Muzak alot between 2004-2006. I remembered the words when this came up on my spotify playlist in 2008. I finally found the name of the song. I don't get why songs like this don't make it to mainstream radio for very long.
Not my usual preferred kind of music (im in to house and electronic), but ive just sat and looked through some of the UK chart archives for the week of 15th Feb 2004 and thought id RU-vid the songs id never heard of, and here we are! I actually really enjoyed this. Its quite light and fresh. Now im about to delve in to the back catalogue!
I am digging this band more and more.........i appreciate her lyrics more than anything. And like the awesome book that is made into a good movie. The lyrics come to life in a personal way long before you watch.
thanks jester for letting me know this song, now im liking it. Like the way i like you. cant stop listening to it. Though the lyrics made me something i can't explain.😔😔😔
Flicking threw radio stations late at night in the ireland/UK. Found this on BBC Radio 2 back in 2003/4 i heard this song. Still like it. The effort it took to identify this song after only hearing/remembering 30 seconds, took about3 months i guess. Theres only so often you can post on a forum do you know this song with the words below in it lol. Anyway just wanted to post that.
Cheers mate, heard her interviewed on local radio and had to do some digging myself. Took me a while well but kudos to you for digging longer than me. great song
