The song Here In The Real World by Alan Jackson is about the contrast between the idealistic world portrayed in movies and the harsh reality of life. The lyrics suggest that in movies, cowboys don't cry, heroes don't die, and love always wins. However, in reality, things are not that easy. Hearts get broken, and sometimes the boy doesn't get the girl. The speaker in the song gave his love to someone, but it was not enough to hold their heart during tough times. He reflects on how in movies, everything always ends well for the lovers, but in reality, that is not always the case. The message of the song seems to be that while we may wish for life to be like a movie, we must accept that it's not always that easy. We may experience heartbreak and disappointment, and things don't always end up the way we hope they will.
