歌曲：《Here in the Real World 》
歌词：
Cowboys don't cry,
And heroes don't die.
And good always wins
Again and again.

And love is a sweet dream
That always comes true
Oh, if life were like the movies,
I'd never be blue.

But here in the real world,
It's not that easy at all,
'Cause when hearts get broken,
It's real tears that fall.
And darlin', it's sad but true,
But the one thing I've learned from you,
Is how the boy don't always get the girl,
Here in the real world.

I gave you my love,
But that wasn't enough,
To hold your heart
When times got tough.
And tonight on that silver screen,
It'll end like it should,
Two lovers will make it through
Like I hoped we would.

But here in the real world,
It's not that easy at all,
'Cause when hearts get broken,
It's real tears that fall.
And darlin', it's sad but true,
But the one thing I've learned from you,
Is how the boy don't always get the girl,
Here in the real world.

听后感受：或许很多人的才子佳人梦最开始都是从电影、电视或小说里下载的。于是我们在懂事之初就笃信“有情人终成眷属”或者“身无彩凤双飞翼，心有灵犀一点通”。只是在长大之后，在现实生活里经历过爱情的宠幸和折磨之后，才真正明白恋爱真不是“温馨的请客吃饭”。发现这个问题的还有Alan Jackson。1990年，Alan Jackson将他的处子作命名为《Here in the Real World 》，并在其中总结了电影与现实的巨大落差：爱情是个美梦，美梦就终会成真；在电影世界里我永远不会忧郁，但在现实世界里我也会为爱伤透心；姑娘你让我明白，不是每个男人都会得到他梦中的少女。或许不少人经历过类似Alan Jackson歌曲中的场景，深有感触，歌曲在美国曾经排上乡村音乐排行榜第三的位置。
