David Essex – Reality

David Essex – Reality Lyrics

Artist: David Essex
Song: Reality

Here am I and I’m wondering why I’m shaking
Nervous as a kitten, twice shy once bitten – no faking
Passers-by won’t look me in the eye, they’re hiding
Finding it hard to find someone to confide in

Standing in line, it’s a funny old time – it’s a funny old time
Reality’s gone…
What’s real and what’s not
Am I cold, am I hot? I’m thinking

Is reality clouded by my excessive drinking?
Am I losing the thread
Is it something I said?
Today, I should have stayed in bed

Reality’s gone… reality…
R-E-A-L… I-T-Y
R-E-A-L… I-T-Y
Reality is in the eye of the beholder

I never wanted to cry on your shoulder
Reality is what you feel and comprehend to be
But as you reach to touch it – it moves away so easily
What’s in a name?

It’s a funny old game we’re playing
Does it begin when we die?
Are we buried alive? Who’s saying…
It’s a cruel cruel world

On this mortal coil
How come the Arabs got so much oil?
Reality… reality…
R-E-A-L… I-T-Y

R-E-A-L… I-T-but why?
Reality is in the eye of the beholder
I never wanted to cry on your shoulder
Reality is what you feel and comprehend to be

But as you reach to touch it – it moves away so easily…
Reality is in the eye of the beholder
I never wanted to cry on your shoulder
Reality is what you feel and comprehend to be

But as you reach to touch it – it moves away so easily…
R-E-A-L… I-T-Y…
R-E-A-L… I-T-Y…
R-E-A-L… I-T-Y…

R-E-A-L… I-T-Y…
R-E-A-L… I-T-Y…
