The Real Thing

I've been holdin' on, I've been lookin' for the real thing

Waitin' patiently but I never stopped believin'

Say I'm chasin' rainbows, livin' in a dream

Girl, I kept my fantasy, I'm never givin' in

I'll tell you why, oh, why

If I can't have you

I don't want nobody, baby

Girl, it's got to be you

Oh, I need the real thing

If I can't have you

I don't want nobody, baby

Girl, it's got to be you

I need the real thing

Had a part time love but I never fell completely

But when you touch me there

Ooh, you get me reelin', yes, you do

Can I dare to wonder if it could be you?

Girl, you set my heart on fire when I dream of you

I wanna fly, oh so very high

If I can't have you

I don't want nobody, baby

Girl, it's got to be you

Oh, I need the real thing

If I can't have you

I don't want nobody, baby

Girl, it's got to be you

I need the real thing

If I can't have you

I don't want nobody, baby

Girl, it's got to be you

Oh, I need the real thing

If I can't have you

I don't want nobody, baby

Girl, it's got to be you

Oh, I need the real thing
