Just As Real Lyrics

The last time that I saw you, did you ever sense my pain?
On that night when we were driving, did you listen to the rain?
Though every passing second warned me like the falling of a weight
By the time I saw it coming, it was already too late

Your words hit me like lightening, like a bullet through my heart
And the closer that you get, I feel the more we're torn apart
And no matter how I try, there's no way to set things right
And though it took a while to steal my heart, it breaks right overnight

If a waterfall could wash this pain away, I'd make it
If medicine could keep these tears from falling, I'd take it
Though it feels like nothing's left when all the colors fade to blue
I can love you just as real as I can do

I don't need a thousand years of life to make it true
No it could never be as strong as just a glimpse of time with you
And though the shock runs through my fingers I can't let go of this wire
And though my soul is made of water, well for you it's made of fire

If there were any way to make you understand, I'd show you
If the sun went out and the darkness filled the land, I'd hold you
Though it feels like nothing's left when all the colors fade to blue
I can love you just as real as I can do

Well the moon is full tonight, and it shines right in your eyes
And with every step I take I feel farther from the sky
Don't you try to tell me I should find the brightest star
'Cause I know just where to find it, oh I know just who you are

This love is strong as a stone, no there ain't no way to break it
If I had another chance, well my god then I would take it
Though it feels like nothing's left when all the colors fade to blue
I can love you just as real as I can do, as I can do
