[Verse 1]
Cowboys don't cry and heroes don't die
Good always wins again and again
And love is a sweet dream that always comes true
Oh, if life were like the movies, I'd never be blue
[Chorus]
But here in the real world, it's not that easy at all
'Cause when hearts get broken, it's real tears that fall
And darling, it's sad but true, but the one thing I've learned from you
Is how the boy don't always get the girl here in the real world
[Verse 2]
I gave you my love, but that wasn't enough
To hold your heart when times got rough
And tonight on that silver screen, it'll end like it should
Two lovers will make it through, like I hoped we would
[Chorus]
But here in the real world, it's not that easy at all
'Cause when hearts get broken, it's real tears that fall
And darling, it's sad but true, but the one thing I've learned from you
Is how the boy don't always get the girl here in the real world
[Outro]
No, the boy don't always get the girl here in the real world
