2. It’s Real for Us
Lauren Fairweather
The Prince’s Tale (6 July 2011)
Ever since I was a kid
I couldn’t explain the things I did
Thought it would make my family proud
Instead it kind of freaks them out
If there’s a place where I can go
To step outside the status quo
I’d tackle every lesson plan
If I could stop hiding who I am
Petunia told me you’re lying
She just won’t believe you
Says there is no Hogwarts
So, Sev, is it really true?
But it’s real for us
It’s real for us
It doesn’t matter what the Muggles say
‘Cause it’s real for us
It’s real for us
Oh, it’s real for us
It doesn’t matter what the Muggles say
‘Cause it’s real for us
He says they’ve cast protective charms
To keep the school away from harm
Hidden away from Muggle eyes
They couldn’t find it if they tried
I just can’t wait to go and see
So many people just like me
‘Cause all I’ve wanted for so long
Is to find a place where I belong
It’ll come by owl
A letter just for me
Is this really happening?
‘Cause it feels just like a dream
But it’s real for us
It’s real for us
It doesn’t matter what the Muggles say
‘Cause it’s real for us
It’s real for us
Oh, it’s real for us
It doesn’t matter what the Muggles say
‘Cause it’s real for us
We can do magic
Can do magic
Can do magic
If we stand together
Stand together
Stand together
It’s real for us
It’s real for us
It doesn’t matter what the Muggles say
‘Cause it’s real for us
It’s real for us
Oh, it’s real for us
It doesn’t matter what the Muggles say
‘Cause it’s real for us
