Real - Nichole Nordeman

作词：Nichole Nordeman/Chris Stevens

作曲：Nichole Nordeman/Chris Stevens

Frozen statues in the cold

Washed in moonlight blue and gold

Mary's babe in plastic hay

Quiet wonder on her face

Mary you look so serene

Far too pretty much too clean

We might think we know you well

But what stories would you tell

Of all the dirt and dust and shame

Everybody burning labour pain

And as I turn to walk away

I hear you say

I am real

Don't turn me into memory or myth

Let me be real real

And I'll show you

What it means to love like this

To be real

Shepherds bending to the ground

Bethlehem is safe and sound

Joseph you look brave and true

Do we know what it was like to be you

How many sleepless nights awake

Found you desperate and afraid

And as I turn to walk away

I hear you say

I am real

Don't turn me into memory or myth

Let me be real real

And I'll show you

What it means to love like this

To love like you don't even

Care about the hurry and the hustle

Like you are unaware

December comes with so much trouble

Cause you believe a baby came

Not in paintings or in plays

But every minute every hour every day

To be real real

You are real real

Show you

What it means to love like this

To be real

To be real

More than a memory

More than a story

Real
