Out of This World Lyrics
When we look back at it all as I know we will
You and me, wide eyed
I wonder...
Will we really remember how it feels to be this alive?
And I know we have to go
I realize we only get to stay so long
Always have to go back to real lives
Where we belong [Repeat: x2]
When we think back to all this and I'm sure we will
Me and you, here and now
Will we forget the way it really is
Why it feels like this and how?
And we always have to go I realize
We always have to say goodbye
Always have to go back to real lives
But real lives are the reason why
We want to live another life
We want to feel another time
Another time...
Yeah another time
To feel another time...
When we look back at it all as I know we will
You and me, wide eyed
I wonder...
Will we really remember how it feels to be this alive?
And I know we have to go
I realize we always have to turn away
Always have to go back to real lives
But real lives are why we stay
For another dream
Another day
For another world
Another way
For another way...
One last time before it's over
One last time before the end
One last time before it's time to go again...
You and me, wide eyed
I wonder...
Will we really remember how it feels to be this alive?
I realize we only get to stay so long
Always have to go back to real lives
Where we belong [Repeat: x2]
Me and you, here and now
Will we forget the way it really is
Why it feels like this and how?
We always have to say goodbye
Always have to go back to real lives
We want to live another life
We want to feel another time
Another time...
You and me, wide eyed
I wonder...
Will we really remember how it feels to be this alive?
I realize we always have to turn away
Always have to go back to real lives
For another dream
Another day
For another world
Another way
For another way...
One last time before the end
One last time before it's time to go again...

This song is a brilliant introduction to what becomes a revelation. The entirety of the bloodflowers CD begs the listener to breakdown with robert smith and disengage from reality while accepting it at the same time. It is, quite simply, about saying goodbye; to the world, to your loved one, to your loyal fan base. It is about discovering the real meaning of love and realizing that you can not have it. I love this song, i love the cure. Bloodflowers will always be the best album ever made and robert smith the most creative genius alive.
I love what you say about how you want to "disengage from reality while accepting it at the same time". It's an album that makes you feel Amor Fati - love of one's fate.

yeah i love it, its such an open song, from such an open album
This song hits me so hard, 'specially the lyrics.
"But real lives are the reason why we want to live another life, we want to feel another time.." That's exactly how I feel for almost 10 years now.
Does anyone feel like this song has a connection with "The Promise"?
You promised me another wish Another way You promised me another dream Another day You promised me another time
...those lyrics are very similar to those in this song.
this song is beautiful...words and music blended perfectly together....
this song hits me so hard too. i feel the entire bloodflowers album is about retrospection, and this song just sums it all up. looking towards the past while looking towards the future too. isn't robert amazing?
truer words were never spoken. "always have to go back to real lives."

The song is about the innocence of youth and the wide eyed dream of true love, but then yr pulled back into real life and theres no hope and no true love, so you dream up this perfect dream life where every one of yr wide eyed youthful dreams can come completely true. But its also about realizing that that life is only a dream that youll never be able to obtain and sadly accepting it and returning to yr real life
