Cowboys don´t cry,
And heroes don´t die.
And good always wins
Again and again.

And love is a sweet dream
That always comes true
Oh, if life were like the movies,
I´d never be blue.

But here in the real world,
It´s not that easy at all,
´Cause when hearts get broken,
It´s real tears that fall.
And darlin´, it´s sad but true,
But the one thing I´ve learned from you,
Is how the boy don´t always get the girl,
Here in the real world.

I gave you my love,
But that wasn´t enough,
To hold your heart
When times got tough.

And tonight on that silver screen,
It´ll end like it should,
Two lovers will make it through
Like I hoped we would.

But here in the real world,
It´s not that easy at all,
´Cause when hearts get broken,
It´s real tears that fall.
And darlin´, it´s sad but true,
But the one thing I´ve learned from you,
Is how the boy don´t always get the girl,
Here in the real world.
