So Real Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Love, let me sleep tonight on your couch
And remember the smell of the fabric of your simple city dress
[Chorus]
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
[Guitar Solo]
[Interlude]
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I'm afraid
Love, let me sleep tonight on your couch
And remember the smell of the fabric of your simple city dress
[Chorus]
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
Oh, that was so real
[Guitar Solo]
[Interlude]
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I love you
But I'm afraid to love you
I'm afraid

Genius Annotation
“So Real” is the third single from Jeff Buckley’s 1994 album Grace.
Michael Tighe, the guitarist who joined Buckley’s band late in the recording of Grace, brought with him what became the main riff on the song.
“So Real” was added in place of “Forget Her”, which was originally on the album track list. The latter, while not appearing on the original album, was eventually released on the second disc of the 10th anniversary Legacy Edition of Grace and is also on the official Jeff Buckley site.
