[Intro & Chorus]

[Dwele]

Real love, true love (It feels good girl),

Tainted love (It's so good girl), real love,

True love (It's alright baby) tainted love, real love,

true love, tainted love

[T3]

Think of her think of me, think about us it's a

intimacy

I'm tryin to strum like guitars in this beat

And consider ridin she'll kick the blahzay spleen

Plus, you got a man but he ain't quite me

The type of man that try to give you what you need

And, he wanna know where you are where you be

Where you going where you today where you started to

be (Damn)

If I was him I wouldn't even leave

I would trust you what you say that you are where you

been

Say, he the type of nigga that's still cheap

Take his girl on a date and they go to Mickey D's

See, I'm the type that try to style in a jeep

Try to take you out to see things and occasionally

creep

Yeah your man is doing things I can't really see

Don't sound too good it sound tainted to me

[Chorus: Dwele]

Real love (It's so real girl) true love (It's so right

girl)

Tainted love (It's real) real love (It's so good girl)

True love (For real love) tainted love (Tainted)

Real love (Yeah yeah) true love (It's so good girl)

real love

[Baatin]

How many years does it take for a record to blow?

I'm doin exactly how many licks it took for my hoes

Spendin your cash flow cause she was so out hoe

Scandal love, cause love full of scandal

Too much chick for that ass she couldn't handle that

Well it's the same tainted love in the music business

People they lose thet brain just to get up in this

Let's be a star for day, everything in life is just ok

People say things they don't really wanna say

Hey but it's ok cause your a star for the day

People a smile at you when they really wanna frown

Well a that's just the way tainted folk get down

Just keep it real and, we'll see

When the situation is tainted love is always free

Love is always free, love is always free

[Chorus: Dwele]

Real love, true love, tainted love, real love

True love, tainted love, real love, true love, real

[Elzhi]

You say you love me but is it really real

Would you, fix me green tea if I'm feelin ill

Would you, give me a back rub to sooth after a long

day

Dinner by candlelight but your the main entree

And if so I do the same with other treats to give you

Trailin rose pedals from your door to beneath your

pillow

With a bucket of champagne on your night stand

Experience with someone who want in they life span,

the same

[Chorus]

Real love, real, real, everybody knows that love's

real love

[Dwele]

Someone to trust in you for real

Everybody need love that's real

I would never want nothin tainted

Wait a minute what you feel

Faded if your lovin was tainted

True, oh, I know true love is hard to find

Just let it find you for real

If you found love to keep it real

Keep love from being tainted, being tainted

Oooh do you, be, alright

(T3: Just sit y'all, Dwele, on more time y'all come

on)

If you, be, alright...
