The world is in a mess, girl, I want it to get off if I could
The heat is overtakin', girl, I'd like to stop it now if I could
My mind has been achin', I'd refuse to take your drugs if I could
I walk around in dazes, yeah, I'm born to the phases like I should

Girl, don't you see all this love's not real?
Girl, you and me what they say is not real
If I could
If I could

I know the end is comin', girl, I'd like to move away if I could
There are things I gotta do, and words I wanna say if I could
There's nowhere else to hide, I'd like to find a place if I could
There's nowhere else to run, girl, I wanna have some fun if I could

Girl, don't you see all this love's not real?
Girl, you and me what they say is not real
If I could
If I could
