Real Life
Gorgon City & Duke Dumont feat. Naations Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It means nothing
If you don't know what you got
You make it feel like Sunday
And it keeps me holding up
And up
These flashing lights
And the morning sun
Ooh let's then enter, make pretend
I only wanna love you, in real life
Love you in real life
I only wanna love you, in real life
Love you in real life
Love you in real life
Love you in real life
Don't lose your touch
Oh yes and ferity
You and me babe
That's how it's gonna be
These flashing lights
They're temporary it's not the end
And the morning sun
Ooh let's then enter, make pretend
I only wanna love you, in real life
Love you in real life
I only wanna love you, in real life
Love you in real life
Love you in real life
Love you in real life
I just wanna love you
I just wanna love you in real life
I just wanna love you
I just wanna love you in real life
I only wanna love you, in real life
Love you in real life
I only wanna love you, in real life
Love you in real life
I only wanna love you, in real life
Love you in real life
I only wanna love you, in real life
Love you in real life
Love you in real life
Love you in real life
I really wanna love you
I really wanna love you
The song Real Life begins by stating that loving someone in real life is the only thing that matters. It emphasizes the importance of understanding what you have and not taking it for granted. The verse "It means nothing if you don't know what you got" highlights the fact that love loses its value when it's not appreciated.
The chorus shows the determination to love in real life and not just in passing moments or in superficial ways. Gorgon City, Duke Dumont and NATIONS want to create a meaningful connection that goes beyond the flashing lights and temporary experiences of life. They want to create a love that is not only passionate but also sustainable.
In the second verse, the song urges the listener not to lose their touch and to preserve the unique chemistry between two lovers. The line "You and me babe, that's how it's gonna be" reinforces the idea of a committed and lasting love. Throughout the song, the authors emphasize their eagerness to genuinely love their partner and form a bond that is authentic and deep.
