Real emotion, shining right on through
If your heart is true
You can make it, you don't have to fake it with
Real emotion, there ain't no substitute
For your real emotion
Nothing much happens to me
I like to watch a lot of TV
Losing myself in the afternoon
The little slices of life that are over too soon
Can't think of no place to go
Spend a lot of time at the show
And when I'm sittin' real close to the wide, wide screen
I feel like it's happening to me
I'm talkin' 'bout
Real emotion, shining right on through
If your heart is true
You can make it, you don't have to fake it with
Real emotion, there ain't no substitute
For your real emotion
When I get sad I can cry (It's only temporary)
And when I get old I can die (It's just a memory)
Never knowing what life is all about
Watching it all go by
And girl, I know that you understand
When will you come and love me again (She never let me down)
It's like sittin' real close to the wide, wide screen
I feel like it's happening to me
I'm talkin' 'bout
Real emotion, shining right on through
If your heart is true
You can make it, you don't have to fake it with
Real emotion,
there ain't no substitute
For your real emotion
Real, real, real emotion, shining right on through
If your heart is true
You can make it, you don't have to fake it with
Real emotion,
there ain't no substitute
For your real emotion
Real emotion, shining right on through
If your heart is true
You can make it, you don't have to fake it with
Real emotion,
there ain't no substitute
For your real emotion
