In Real Life

This is for the moments
And this is for the summer
This be my song
This be yours tomorrow

And this is for the laughter
This is for there after
Might you sleep for either
Might you be forgiving

Newly comes this day
And I can’t reach for my weigh
For long in time I wait
For what may never be

This is what happens in real life
This is for your silent nights
A little something
To keep your worries right

And this is for what matters 
When the story is no more
This is for the moments
This be yours tomorrow
