How Great Were the Robins - Real Again Lyrics

You said -I won't drive you home
Not until summer ends!
How can I pay the toll
If you won't let me live?
Don't lose your head
Tell me why it feels strange
To be real again
I keep my eyes on the clock then
Not my mind in your pocket
A favorite old song
So loud for tired ears
To mock a blackbird
His broken wings don't work 'round here
You might burn the uniform
Don't make of a cloth the man you are
If I show you my torned out heart
You'd see me like a lazy bum
And learning to fake
A smile for somebody else
How big the mistakes
That brought you to this
One life choice
When it feels so strange
To be real again
I keep my eyes on the clock then
Not my mind in your pocket
If you don't mind close the door then
The voices I heard all sound the same

You said -I won't drive you home
Not until summer ends!
How can I pay the toll
If you won't let me live?
Don't lose your head
Tell me why it feels strange
To be real again
I keep my eyes on the clock then
Not my mind in your pocket
A favorite old song
So loud for tired ears
To mock a blackbird
His broken wings don't work 'round here
You might burn the uniform
Don't make of a cloth the man you are
If I show you my torned out heart
You'd see me like a lazy bum
And learning to fake
A smile for somebody else
How big the mistakes
That brought you to this
One life choice
When it feels so strange
To be real again
I keep my eyes on the clock then
Not my mind in your pocket
If you don't mind close the door then
The voices I heard all sound the same
