(This is the real thing) They say that time is the only cure To heal the hurt of a broken heart I say you never can be sure No no no If you don't try and make a brand new start In my mind love was just a dream Like a fairytale But you gave me the reason to believe that I should give it one more chance There's no doubt about it I can't do without it This is the real thing Ain't no way around it Love has finally found me This is the real thing You take me higher than I've ever gone Yes you do And in the way that makes me feel secure Your love is the one that warms me to the bone Yes you do And every day you give a little more When I think about the loves gone by And what I've been through I'm convinced this one is right Girl there's nothing left to prove There's no doubt about it I can't do without it This is the real thing Ain't no way around it Love has finally found me This is the real thing Every minute, every hour I can feel the power This is the real thing Love is not a fiction Love is not a trick This is the real thing Oh it's so easy now Looking in your eyes When love comes so naturally It's meant to be Now I found the real love But it is I don't feel the same I don't feel the same And every day you give a little more When I think about the loves gone by And what I've been through I'm convinced this one is right Girl there's nothing left to prove There's no doubt about it I can't do without it This is the real thing Ain't no way around it Love has finally found me This is the real thing Is this the real thing baby Real thing It's the real thing, real thing Is this the real thing baby Real thing This is the real thing, real thing This is the real thing baby
