Real to Me

[MEG]
I always thought you would hold in my heart for as long as I could
But I’ve been told I’ll forget
Fade into regret, and outgrow this old wood
I can’t imagine not thinking about you at all
The marching of time growing faster makes me feel so small

Oh, I’ll be all on my own, my own
Could I forget you when I’m grown, I’m grown
And stars will dull, they will not feel at all
And you will blow away like sand
At the forest line, where I stand

The more that I think about growing, the faster I grow
It’s funny how I used to think everything went too slow
They can’t make me forget you, I don’t think I could
But everyone keeps telling me, Meg, it’s not real and you should

Oh, I’ll be all on my own, my own
Could I forget you when I’m grown, I’m grown
And stars will dull, they will not feel at all
And you will blow away like sand
At the forest line, where I stand

Why can’t they see you?
Why am I so isolated by having some friends they can’t see?
Am I a monster?
Does that explain the way they always look at me?
What will I grow up to be, if I’m already bad before given the
Chance to be good?
I don’t want to grow up, but maybe I should

You are real to me
You are real to me
You are real to me
You are real to me
You are real to me
