about

Something Real is a song is about finding peace in the moment. It is about realisation, and seeing things more clearly than before.

Clouds can hang over us both mentally and physically, but sometimes all we need is a simple ray of sunshine to help us to see things in a better light.

'Bask in the warmth of the sunlight...'

lyrics

How long
Has this been going on?
Many years I have travelled
But I got it all wrong

There's a light I can see in the distance
When I reach I can almost touch
To bask in the warmth of the sunlight
As it breaks through the clouded skies
I feel inside
Something pure
Something real

Life
It's a precious thing
Make the most of the time that you have
And you will find your wings

There's a light I can see in the distance
When I reach I can almost touch
To bask in the warmth of the sunlight
As it breaks through the clouded skies
I feel inside
Something pure
Something real

Sometimes the weight can be heavy
Allow me to lighten the load
Sometimes the mind is unsteady
Now's the time to let it all go
You don't have to journey alone
All the people you don't yet know
Their love will show
Give it time
And you'll see

Get up
And brush off the dirt
You're battered and bruised
But things are looking up

There's a light I can see in the distance
When I reach I can almost touch
To bask in the warmth of the sunlight
As it breaks through the clouded skies
I feel inside
Something pure
Something real
