Lyrics
Real Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They say that it's a matter of trusting
Before love has a chance to begin
And it's never simple
Faithless hearts can cripple
And only a strong love survives
I know they say that it's a fine line
Between giving up and giving in
But once your heart's been in it
You just can't forget it
It's like nothing that you've felt in your life
We got real love
Not infatuation
Real love
Our hearts' celebration
I love you (you know I love you too)
Real love
Not an imitation
Real love
You're my destination
Baby, you and me
We got everything we need
You are such a part of my life
That I can't remember me without you
And we've had our nights
We've had our share of fights
But we've never thought of giving it up
Oh, you and I we must be dreamers
'Cause we're making our dreams come true
I could spend my life
Just holding you so tight
And never, ever get enough
We got real love
Not infatuation
Real love
Our hearts' celebration
I love you (you know I love you too)
Real love
Not an imitation
Real love
You're my destination
Baby, you and me
We got everything we need
We got real love…
We got real love
Not infatuation
Real love
Our hearts' celebration
I love you (you know I love you too)
Real love
Not an imitation
Real love
You're my destination
Baby, you and me
We got everything we need
We got real love
Not infatuation
Real love
Our hearts' celebration
I love you (you know I love you too)
Real love
Not an imitation
Real love
You're my destination
Baby, you and me
We got everything we need
