“Real” is a dreamy celebration of turning fantasy into flesh. Silvina Moreno starts the story in a rule-free night where she playfully sketches an ideal lover inside her mind. Bit by bit, those mental brushstrokes shape a living person, and before she knows it the imagined figure is standing right in front of her. The chorus bursts with joy at this magical transformation — not only has her wish come true, but the other person was searching for her at the same time, proving the connection is mutual and unmistakably real.
Beneath the sparkly surface, the song is about learning how to handle the very thing you once longed for. Silvina admits she occasionally forgets how wonderful that first vision felt, yet she keeps reminding herself of the gratitude and awe that started it all. “Real” speaks to anyone who has dreamed of love, manifested it, and then faced the beautiful challenge of nurturing it day by day.
