Nichole Nordeman - Real lyrics

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 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 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 us what it means to love like this To be real To be real More than a memory More than a story Real
