A D
Love is real, it is not
E A
just in novels or the movies
A D
It is fact And it is standing here
E
right in front of you
So if you open your eyes
oh what a sweet discovery
There is hope, and there is joy
and there is acceptance
D E
So now let all of the light that collects on your plants
C#m A
Keep you warm, make you smile
D E
And I will be there with this pen in my hand
C#m7 A
To record all the while
D E C#m7 B7
You'll be laughing so loud that the house would shake with sound
D E A
And everything will be as new as the day it was found
Bm C#m D E
Love is real it is not
just in long distance commercials
Or something that you thought you felt
back in high school
So I will turn black and white
Become that horoscope you're reading
It predicts something good
is on its way
D E
Oh, and then I will send you the world green and blue
C#m A
In a box through the mail
D E
You can open it up, hold it right in your hand
C#m7 A
And be glad that it's there
D E
And be glad that you're there
C#m7 B7
Now you can feel all the knots in your stomach start to untie
D E A
And suddenly it's not so hard to say you're all right
Bm C#m D E
Love is real, it is not
just in poetry and stories
It is truth, and it will follow you
Everywhere you go from now on
So if you'd just cast off your doubt
Then your lips would answer for you
Oh my darling, when you smile, it is like a song
And I can hear it now
