In My Reality

(album: Everlasting - 1987)

Ya yeh ya, hey-ey ya
Oh, woh, woh, woh, woh
Ah, ah, ah, ahh

Say goodbye to all of your friends
And the people we knew
It's better that it comes from you
Tell them what you want
'Cuz I tried so hard to make you happy

No big star dreams, no things that seem
To make up your life
So, I'm going back to New York City
Where people live

In my reality, all of my life
Yours was no good for me
Need to feel the beat of the street
In my life in my reality

Back to my life
Yours was no good for me
3000 miles away
And every day's a new day

All those dreams that pulled us apart
And the things that you want
They'll never be enough for you
So, I'll say goodbye
And I'm going back to New York City
Where people live

In my reality back to my life
Yours was no good for me
Need to feel the beat of the street
In my life

Back to my old address
Nobody to impress
3000 miles away
And every day's a new day ya

I guess, my love was not enough for you
So, I'll say goodbye baby
And I'm going back to New York City
There people live

In my reality, all of my life
Yours was no good for me
I need to feel the heat of the street
In my life

Goodbye to Hollywood
Didn't do me any good
3000 miles away
Where everyday is a brand new day, ay, yah, yah, yah

So, go on and say goodbye to all your friends
And the people we new
It's better that it comes from you
And you can tell them what you want

'Cuz I tried so hard to make you happy baby
But I gotta go back to my reality
Back to my life that's where I need to be
I need to feel the heat of the streets, ya, ah

In my life, in my life, in my life
I need to be feeling alright yeah, ya
3000 miles away
Its' okay 'cuz everyday is a brand new day ya

So say, ya, ya, ya
Say goodbye to all your friends
And the people that you used to know
'Cuz I've gotta go

And you can tell them what you want baby
'Cuz I tried so very, very hard
To make you oh, so happy but baby, baby
I'll pack my bags, I gotta go
