I think one can convey the feeling of "wishing something were real" into spoken words without actually thinking those exact words to themselves.

It's like when you are hungry, and decide to eat. You didn't have to tell yourself to do it to know that you should.

Speech is largely subconscious. Even people with a strong inner dialog are capable of expressing themselves in words without explicitly thinking out every word they say prior to open their mouths.
