Lyrics

[Verse 1] Having a bad week? Let me touch your cheek I will always love you [Verse 2] Having your face hit Having your lip split By the one who loves you [Chorus] Real love, real love Real love makes your lungs black Real love is a heart attack [Verse 3] Showing your mother to any other Letting them touch her Looking up to her Watching her do her makeup and hair [Chorus] Real love, real love Real love makes your lungs black Real love is a heart attack [Verse 4] Cry like a bird, fly like a baby Mama got drunk and Daddy went crazy If your speech slurs, if you feel shaky, meet me out back I'll be there waiting [Verse 5] Riding in the back seat Watching the spit fly and the hummingbird cry Oh mama, oh papa Oh mama, oh papa How much blood is worth the draw? How much blood is worth the draw? [Chorus] Real love, real love Real love makes your lungs black [Guitar Solo #1] Hummingbird watching Watching her young thing Grow up so fast Looking up to her Watching her do her makeup and hair [Guitar Solo #2]
