Real Thing
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.
I'm married to
A terrific guy
I'll never leave
Until I die
But I just love to get out and get it on
I don't wanna live possessed by a memory
I want to be young, I want to dance with abandon
And I don't care about the real thing
Everywhere I go
I'm reporting from the scene
Of somebody's
Missed opportunity
I love you, but it's not enough (but why?)
Baby, I just know there's so much more
But I just love to get out and get it on
I don't wanna live possessed by a memory
I want to be young, I want to dance with abandon
And I don't care about the real thing
