Hozier - Like Real People Do (lyrics)

[@nyb3672]

The thing I like about Hozier is that most of his songs say: "Just because I'm not normal doesn't mean I'm not right. Love is love. Life is life. I am real."

[@justusvanslyke2895]

How beautifully put. Hope you don't mind if I steal that.

[@nyb3672]

Go ahead.

[@Bumple101]

beautiful. :")

[@himan7791]

this is about him simply accepting the fact his significant other was basically cheating. thats how they started being a thing, by her cheating on someone with him and he will not ask her where she came from nor should she ask him. simple

[@E_X_I_S_T_E_N_T_I_A]

A real deep, meaningful love song covered in Pooh bear pictures. I like it.

[@KL-ol8xf]

I love Winnie and I think the message and sweetness of Winnie actually makes this song even nicer

[@rachelb.684]

WHY IS HIS MUSIC SO BEAUTIFUL IT'S NOT FAIR

[@phoebe7697]

+Rachel B. your profile picture perfectly matches this comment XD

[@rachelb.684]

xD

[@DieLøwinWølf]

Rachel B. Exactly

[@sammm8565]

Man the feels I get from this song! The feels multiply even more when you sing along to it.

[@BellaDiary]

AMEN- same here babe. Breath-taking x

[@PhuTube714]

+TheTravelCrush ur gorgeous will u marry me?

[@BellaDiary]

PhuTube714 ahahah you're crazy ;) x

[@PhuTube714]

+TheTravelCrush we should just kiss like real people do =D

[@sammm8565]

TheTravelCrush you are my crush and I would travel if you asked me to ;)

[@em12837]

Hozier's music isn't music. It's poetry with a guitar.

[@amaris3848]

I think adding Winnie the Pooh was really clever. For some reason it fits into the mood of the song of the soft melodies.

[@holdonamin6007]

His voice is almost hypnotic...

[@crayzpotatoe824]

I love the songs like these, the ones with a hidden message that everyone can relate to, just in different ways with different people.

[@samkosko4937]

I'm watching this blazed af and I'm hella confused why is Winnie the Pooh in here

[@MicahCruell.]

😂😂

[@senly123]

lmaooo same!

[@RainCheck797]

Same

[@nettieinhaworld]

LMFAOOOO SAMEE

[@devonsnow5274]

hella fried checking in. im pretty sure its because of the lyrics in the chorus with the use of the honey and whatnot

[@andielion6145]

I lost it sobbing, not only for the song, but for Winnie the Pooh. Reminds me of being around my grandparents when I was little. Too much sadness to handle.

[@shayyvonnee]

I'm sorry

[@Izzie556wzw]

This song makes me so freaking emotional somehow, it makes me feel like...a story is told about a couple who love each other so much that its so normal for them to have hope that every day of their lives that they shall live together in eternal happiness and i think winnie the pooh is such a good background for this song because it explains the emotional touch of the lyrics/notes that keep us all satisfied. Sorry this is long O_O

[@aliciagis719]

The meaning I got from this song is a little bleak. I believe in the process of burying her past she found him and the two of them begin a courtship. Both of them would rather not discuss their pasts. Unfortunately she is still consumed by the ghost of her past partner ,and in a sad way he knows this. He is suggesting that they should kiss as two present people. Thus the we should and could kiss like real people do but they haven't kissed because she is still hiding and burying and connected to the ghost of her past.

[@bmkaggie]

this song describes my life and situation

[@lisajoh1178]

Yes exactly...

[@CyrusP.]

It's sad, but the song feels like two people are so inlove. Yet, they're..in a sad situation :(

[@sarahmclennon422]

Or it's about bog people... Love it though

[@RonniRagdolll13]

Its about vampires tbh. He said so in an interview. I don't remember which one tho.

[@Lizard_Tongues]

I'm imploding from all this cuteness. This song+Winnie the Pooh= the most amazing thing ever created.

[@bettykirby7851]

This brought a smile to my crying face.

[@MicahCruell.]

😙😚

[@timothyalarcon9184]

we're in it with you

[@acceptancebyembrace]

Beautiful

[@mianicoson7762]

it actually made me cry

[@hellokittyrms16]

So many comments on how this song brightened them up, and yet when I listen to this song...all it does is make me even more depressed.

[@dingylizardthingy7882]

it's actually a happy song sang in a depressed way, he wrote it based on some irish folktale and he said that he liked the idea of digging someone up and falling in love with them lol, i think

[@yoitsjonmac188]

Yep...

[@kristinamitrova5210]

“In some sad way I already know” is, in some sad way, my favourite lyric of the song🖤🖤

[@marilynvasquez4501]

The Winnie the Pooh pictures make me extra happy. Plus I'm loving this song!

[@lxsford14]

I just want to, like, fall in love to the sound of this.

[@ocizzel]

so you tink you can dance, bless you for bringing me here

[@sammawi5931]

The same here .. that is where i heard the song for the very first time.. and now i am addicted to this guy's songs..

[@anitaylored]

honestly i feel like winnie the pooh goes with this song, i have no idea why but i feel he does

[@danissadel.6461]

I absolutely love Winnie and Ive loved this song for years, oddly specific yet its very special

[@yosoyStella]

I cant find words to describe what this simple little song does to me, i just adore it, it touches my soul

[@Jaidrn]

this song is my obsession I flipping love it

[@Sheath1819]

By far one of the sweetest songs about necrophilia that I've ever heard.

[@Kokeebbb]

What is necrophilia ?

[@lorendaemon7945]

@@Kokeebbb I'm terribly sorry to be the one who tells you this, but necrophilia is when a person wants to have sex with a corpse. Sorry.

[@Kokeebbb]

@@lorendaemon7945 No it is alright don't worry about it (: thank you for answering me ! I searched it up and yah it is just not okay

[@look-a-potato719]

Is... Is it about necrophilia???

[@edorasmarauder5761]

Did you look up the song’s meaning?

[@littleangel12344]

This is one of my favorite songs of all time. It's so beautiful and deep.

[@kirannangla5498]

The haunting beauty of Hozier's voice and Winnie the Pooh...

[@juliaparker1168]

beautiful song! Also love the Winnie the Pooh pics! I love pooh bear💛🐻 lol

[@MicahCruell.]

Thank you! 😊

[@darkfey1963]

It isn't possible to overplay this song.I can listen to it any time,anywhere.My mom,who is nearly 70,heard this album first and insisted that I listen to it.Hozier appeals to people all across the board,regardless of age;I am grateful that she was so insistent!

[@RomulusProffitt]

This song and video brings me back memories...

[@godsconvict777]

Whoever put the video to this song..what a commendable job..welldone and thankyou

[@MicahCruell.]

Tim Trim Thank you, love! 😁

[@mihaolala]

[@marceline2905]

winnie the pooh is actually killing it. Perfect

[@hopemartin7641]

This song is beautiful. It makes me want to choreograph a contemporary dance to it. And the fact that Winnie the Pooh is in the background ales it even better because wine the pooh is my favorite Disney character 😍💛

[@tommac9379]

. . .this is food for my soul . . what can i say . .im proud to know hes irish as i am . . .we dont have much but we have this love of music in our souls . .noone can take that . .

[@mariyaliezel]

now i miss chilling while watching winnie the pooh when i was a kid :( nostalgic

[@feargal75]

HOZIER ...... what a great artist !!!! he is absolutely awesome.

[@HopeandCort]

This song makes me so incredibly sad.

[@verandaarmstead4732]

Why?

[@ikanhazw1n]

Veranda Armstead "We should" implies "we don't" also one could argue that "real people" is repeated because the subject and singer don't feel like "real" people.

[@verandaarmstead4732]

Eridan Ampora okay I understand now

[@breezeible7273]

My music teacher showed this song to my class yesterday, and now I can't stop listening to it.

[@PrashantKumarSharma]

+Breeze Ible your music teacher knows the FEELS

[@juliabrockbank9484]

I have watched this video about 10 times now its amazing !

[@shinyoungchoi556]

Beautiful unique and attractive voice and melody.

[@LyricalLyrics]

His voice is so haunting it makes me cry

[@jenniferandrews8431]

I like winnie the pooh, reminds me of the childhood lost, "I knew that look dear...in some sad way I already know"

[@UncleKikiOfficial]

This song is so lovely 💕

[@analysis9479]

I was looking for this song! 😍 I love this song!!!!😭😭😭

[@adysonf9]

This song makes me get goosebumps. I must have listened to it about 50 times

[@mattangles7105]

We dance in the fire with an intensity so bright, my demons don’t stand a chance. For her, I am prepared to fight. The chains have been broken, for I am finally free. God blessed me with an angel w/eyes that burn with such ferocity. She has a smile that will forever bring me to my knees, it’s in these moments that I know I am exactly where I’m supposed to be. When she sings, it’s always with a voice from above, with a woman so unique, how can I not fall so madly in love. She has the body of a goddess, my eyes can’t help but linger, I do everything in my power to pleasure & please her. So I will continue to pimp this pen with a little poetry, because she is my Queen, & Our Lord made her just for me!! From the first time I made love to her, I knew even then; something so beautiful and passionate couldn’t be considered a sin. She looked deep into my eyes as I held her so tight, I teased her and pleased her as we danced together through the night. We shared sweet conversations that continue to this day, I am deeply in love with this woman, what more is there to say. I will try to express my feelings with a little poetry, and if you don’t like it then I suggest you leave. Because I write for one woman & her alone. It was through her own writing that I was finally shown. My eyes have been opened to the fact that God has a plan for me, together we will pimp this pen, just a King and his Queen. As we danced to our own music, under the glow of a blood moon night. We stared into each other’s eyes, as I held you, so close and so tight. As the chaos commenced all around. We had no worries, we couldn’t hear a sound. You and you alone was all that I could see, and despite the madness, all you could see was me. You. My beautiful princess. And me. A simple prince, that oh so curious. XX) I love you!!! AH. AW. C-E.

[@nerosoraru]

I think this song is gorgeous, and the inspiration of bog bodies is really unique for a song of this tone

[@endangeredidiot7378]

I'm incapable of holding a relationship because my mind never strays from one person who I can never love. Any relationships I'm in end because they just feel wrong. I both feel like I'm not meant to be there, and that I'm cheating just by thinking of this other person. I feel like the same thing is happening to the girl in this song, and I understand too well.

[@uvp5000]

Curious, I searched for the song meaning. If the article citing Hozier is accurate, he wrote this about Bog People and, typical of his style, he adds more than one possible meaning for the listener's interpretation. Bog people certainly explains being pulled from the earth and kissing like real people do.

[@fiphthb289]

What are Bog people ?

[@themysticartist2576]

Winnie The Pooh pictures keep the atmosphere calm, and not empty like other lyrics videos do. And the song and his voice makes me think of honey and silk Does that make sense? XD I'm weird.

[@isaacalexander6211]

yall ever hear a hozier song that makes you feel like,, a worm in the dirt ??

[@JescahLamorena]

Such a good song 😍😍😍

[@morganwaas4868]

This song just makes me so inconceivably sad.

[@tobieeejohnsoncx793]

Golly, I love Hozier. His voice is so soothing and deep and I love his music. I'd pick him over today's pop shit any day!

[@marylittle4682]

It must be a sad sensation, to be around people, who are not lieing or pretending, or manipulateling, and realize that those people are not like you.

[@remy3262]

Finally found this song again 💕✨

[@kaylinamayes]

This song has an unexplainable impact on me. The music, how it particularly flows with the song makes my heart race, this may seem weird, I know. But I just love this song
