Real Thing

Here comes the night

Once again

I'll be feeling lonely

Oh if only things could work out like you plan

Where can love be

Tell me why it's so hard to find somebody

Who will stand by me

And take the time to understand

And so may love again

I want the real thing

Or nothing at all

I need someone that I can be sure will

Catch me if I should fall

Someone who'll be there when I call

Then I'll know that it's the real thing

I want the real thing

To warm me each night

Someone to love me over and over

Making the future bright

Somebody who will make it all right

Just give me the real thing

Where is the moon

Won't it smile

On just one more dreamer

Let your beams come down and fill my empty room

Here comes the night

But if there's still a chance that love can find me

I'll be here

Crossing my fingers

Repeat

I want to know for sure

That I can feel secure

Knowing I've found an everlasting love

Once I get that under control

Then I won't let go

Repeat
