Love, let me sleep tonight on your couch
And remember the smell of the fabric
Of your simple city dress
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
We walked around 'til the moon got full like a plate
And the wind blew an invocation and I fell asleep at the gate
And I never stepped on the cracks 'cause I thought I'd hurt my mother
And I couldn't awake from the nightmare, that sucked me in and pulled me under
Pulled me under, oh
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I'm afraid, oh
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Real, real, real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, yeah
Oh, that was so real
And remember the smell of the fabric
Of your simple city dress
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
We walked around 'til the moon got full like a plate
And the wind blew an invocation and I fell asleep at the gate
And I never stepped on the cracks 'cause I thought I'd hurt my mother
And I couldn't awake from the nightmare, that sucked me in and pulled me under
Pulled me under, oh
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I'm afraid, oh
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Real, real, real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, yeah
Oh, that was so real

The visuals that I get when I hear this song are amazing. He's remembering this love he once knew so well. She was so real. He remembers the smells and the images. I think the rock out session in the middle represents the break up and then the wail of the so real is simply him just calling out to his love
