The Real World - The Top Hits Band

Written by：Adam R. Young

I saw the autumn leaves

Peel up off the street

Take wing on the balmy breeze

And sweep you off your feet

And you blushed as they scooped you up

On sugar maple wings

To gaze down on the city below

Ablaze with wondrous things

Downy feathers kiss your face

And flutter everywhere

Reality is a lovely place

But I wouldn't wanna live there

I wouldn't wanna live there

Weighed down by heavy lids

And lunar lullabies

I knew you were wide awake

'Cause you smile with your eyes

Downy feathers kiss your face

And flutter everywhere

Reality is a lovely place

But I wouldn't wanna live there

From the green belt balcony

The wildfires look so pretty

Ponderosa canopy

I'd never leave if it were up to me

To the ruby redwood tree

And to the velvet climbing ivy

Painted all mahogany

I'd never leave if it were up to me

If it were up to me

With a starry brush

Paint the dusk venetian blue

'Cause in the evening hush

You'll never believe the view

And when the leaves return

And their whisperings fill the night

They'll freeze and burn

Where fire and ice collide

Where fire and ice collide

Can you feel a silk embrace

In the satin air

If we dissolve without a trace

Will the real world even care

Downy feathers kiss your face

And flutter everywhere

Reality is a lovely place

But I wouldn't wanna live there

I wouldn't wanna live there

I saw the autumn leaves

Peel up off the street

Take wing on the balmy breeze

And sweep you off your feet
