This song by Gladys is the title track to her new album, which is available in Spotify and iTunes.
If you have been following the Gladys series, you will know that our heroine wrote this song after meeting the star of the silver screen, Darren Woolf.
In real life the music is written and sung by Gabriella Burnel, and the words are by Bertie. Produced by Auburn Jam with drums by Rishi Pelham and guitar by Drew Wynen.
I sit in the dark
And I see your spark
Luminous, moving, Pure boy, perfect man
It's a pity you kiss
That cinema star
It's part artifice, I'm better by far
Bright projection
Screen affection
Your witty Line,
Right on time
Pure perfection
Sweet Confection
Your parting shot
Is really so hot
But Hey-Ho, Here we Go
When I met you
In real life
Your teeth were bright, but not quite right,
Hey-Ho, there you go,
When I met you
In real life
Your body was a sight, but a shorter height
In real life,
In real life,
Nothing's quite right
In real life,
In real life,
The man on the screen
In a mean machine,
In real life,
In real life,
You never see that scene,
in Real life,
In real life
You walk in the light
A celebrated sight
Celestial, starry
Pure Joy, perfect Life
It’s a pity you seem
Too perfect by far
A Photoshop dream
Life’s messy, my star
Bright projection
Screen affection
Your witty Line
Right on time
Pure perfection
Sweet Confection
Your parting shot
Is really so hot
But Hey-Ho, there we Go
When I met you
In real life
Crumbs on your lips, stained finger tips
Hey-Ho, there you go,
When I met you in real life
Your witty anecdote
Hit the wrong note
In real life,
In real life,
Nothing's quite right
In real life,
In real life,
The man on the screen
In a mean machine,
In real life,
In real life,
You never see that scene,
in Real life,
In real life
You never see that scene,
You never see that scene,
Only on the cinema screen
