Cindy Morgan Album: The Best So Far Track: Real Life
Real Life Lyrics
By Geoff and Becky Thurman, Mark Hammond and Cindy Morgan
Wouldn't it be nice if peace was more than just a symbol
And waging war was just a game of cards
Wouldn't it be nice if drugs were only used for healing
And the right to live was held in a high regard
Wouldn't it be nice if mamas never beat their babies
And daddies never got down on their luck
Wouldn't it be nice if a family stayed together
Someone said I love you, I love you stuck
It would sure be nice
Livin' in the neighborhood
Chorus:
This is real life
That's why we need Jesus
This is real life
That's why we need not another fantasy
Real life
That's why we need Jesus
Baby, this is reality
There's no other way through it
Real life
Wouldn't it be nice if church was more than just a building
Wouldn't it be nice if preachers never sinned
Wouldn't it be nice if believers never whispered
And the outside spoke the truth within
Wouldn't it be nice if living life was easy
If I never struggled with sin on my own
Wouldn't it be nice when my days on earth were over
All that I had left was the love that I had shown
It would sure be nice
Livin' in the neighborhood
Bridge:
Oh we've got to believe He can change our destiny
This is real life
Baby this is reality
And we've got to get through it
Baby, this is reality
There's no other way through it
