In A Real Love

I was 18 makin' minimum wage

With a letterman jacket and a Chevrolet

thought I was cool

yeah I ruled the school

You were coolatta with the strawberry lips

Had the whole world danglin' at your fingertips

Our senior year, I was your daddy's worst fear

We ran off on graduation night

Thought a couple of left hand rings would make everything alright

With a little bit o' live, little bit o' learn

Little bit o' watchin' a few more candles burn

And findin' out what life was

With a little bit o' fuss little bit o' fight

Little bit o' kiss and makin' up all night

And wide awake in love, oh in a real love

Well I was 22 workin' double overtime

I was spendin' dollars and makin' dimes

I was overdrawn, barely hangin' on

Then one night you came to me

Tears in your eyes and the EPD and said "guess what"

Baby ready or not

Well I just smiled but I was scared to death

How am I gonna' raise a kid when I'm only a kid myself

With a little bit o' live, little bit o' learn

Little bit o' watchin' a few more candles burn

And findin' out what life was

With a little bit o' fuss little bit o' fight

Little bit o' kiss and makin' up all night

And wide awake in love, oh in a real love
