[R: x2] Ain't nothin' like the real thing baby Ain't nothin' like the real thing Ain't nothin' like the real thing baby Ain't nothin' like the real thing I've got your picture, Hangin' on my wall But it can't see, Or come to me when I call your name I realize it's just a picture in a frame, I read your letters when you're not near But they don't move me, they don't groove me Like when I hear, Your sweet voice, whispering in my ear Oh [R] I play my game, of fantasy I pretend, but I know in reality, I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me, No other sound Is quite the same as your name No touch can do half as much To make me feel better, Oh I've got your memories To look back on Though they help me when you're gone I'm well aware, Nothin' can, take the place of you being there Oh [R] So glad we got the real thing baby So glad we got the real thing Ain't nothin' like the real thing baby Ain't nothin' like the real thing Ain't nothin' like the real thing baby Ain't nothin' like the real thing Ain't nothin' like the real thing baby Ain't nothin' like the real thing Ain't nothin' like the real thing baby Ain't nothin' like the real thing
