Lyrics
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.
This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without
This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without
You're smart whereas I'm just dumb
You smile and then I succumb
I love watching you when you come
But how can there be so much bliss
In one spur of the moment kiss?
I guess when it's as good as this
This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without
This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without
And the moment that I began
To fly higher than Superman
Was when you whispered: "Yes, you can"
You knew just when to undress
You understand, whereas I just guess
But this is something we both possess
This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without
This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without
