What She Really Is lyrics - Chris Rea

One day you will find
That you done her wrong
When it's all passed on over
All dead and gone
You drink to what you
What you thought she was
And I will drink to
What she really is

And if you ever thought
That she lost her way
Well it hurts me much more
Cos you did not say
And what was all true
One day you will see
Oh don't be confused
It's not what came to be
It's how that she is
And always will be
Now you ask yourself
Why did you not see

How you'd like to be
in your wildest dream
Well that's how she saw you
how it could have been
Come on drink up some more
To what you thought she was
And I'll drink to the angel that she really is

Such a pain now to find out
Now it's way past and gone
What you wanted her to be
She was all along
So come on drink up some more
To what you thought she was
And I'll drink to what
To what she, she really is
