Real You

She's got a soft spot for me now

'Cause when she says my name outloud

Well, I can hear it in the timbre of her hitchhike voice

She wants to know where I have been

And ever since our fallin' out

Baby, I have been around

Yes, I been out my mind in somebody else's arms

But it gets old, and I'm agin'

I want the real, want the real, want the real

Want the real you now

Yeah, I'm lookin' for the real, for the real, for the real

For the real you, babe

I took a ride on a carousel

And it was off of it, I fell

Before too long, my mind's been spinnin', and it's hard to keep on

Just for the sake of keepin' on

If I should say to her farewell

It's just because I cannot tell

If it is her or I, who's hidden in the dark

With her eyes close, mine open

I want the real, want the real, want the real

Want the real you now

Yeah, I'm lookin' for the real, for the real, for the real

For the real you, now

Sometimes I think I hear her singin'

But I mistake it for the nightingale's call in the thick and the fog of the night

There must be someone you've been keepin'

But still, you're plaguin' my mind, yeah, you haunt me, I still feel your heart beat

I want the real, want the real, want the real

Want the real you now

Yeah, I'm lookin' for the real, for the real, for the real

For the real you, baby

I want the real you, real you

Yeah, I want the real you
