Real Love

[Verse 1] I come from the land of a million stars In the dead of winter, you can almost hear them burn She came flyin’ by, stardust in her eye We lit out and I swore I’d never return [Chorus 1] I thought our love was true, I sang those “Worried Man Blues” I was chained to the heart of a ghost that I never knew I’m up above it now, I see for miles around 'Cause this is the only real love that I have ever known [Verse 2] The boys are in the alley with Long Tall Sally Sayin’, "Come on, buddy, there’s a party, do you wanna go?" Down at the razor ball, down at the Razor Hall Where there’s shadows in the eyes of the people that I used to know [Chorus 2] Some came to me in strides, some wounded my pride On the banks where the raging river flows I could hear you calling me from the other side As this is the only real love that I have ever known [Verse 3] My song is ringin' like silver, your heart shines like gold They told me nothin’ lasts forever, but I know they’re wrong You gave me the best and I forgot about the rest Now we're standing on the platform right where we belong [Chorus 3] Engineer blows the whistle The fireman rings the bell This train is rollin’ out tonight It’s sixteen coaches wide We watch ‘em all go by Because this is the only real love that I have ever known Yeah, this is the only real love that I have ever known
