the Real Thing by Bo Bice

I must have ran across this one when I went through the playlist that Spotify sets up for me weekly, a kind of songs you may like list. I try to check it weekly, but I don't always. I have been bad about it lately. There's only 30 songs but I rarely add very many, if any, just one or two.

Every word I say, I mean it

Every single day I feel it

But sometimes when you talk

It's obvious you want to show it

So don't blow it

[Chorus]

Tell me what we got

Tell me it's a lot

Tell me it's the real thing

Tell me not to change

And always be the same

Tell me that's a good thing

It's a good thing

Tell me not to lie

Tell me not to wait

Tell me that you want

The same things as me

Tell me that it's fate

Driving me insane

Tell me it's the real thing

That keeps me hanging on

I can read the signs between us

And I feel it's inside when you come nearer

There's a stillness in the air

Like no one else is there

And every moment stays in the moment

[Chorus]

Sometimes it hurts to watch you leave

It feels like you're taking a part of me with you

I never know how it'll be I guess it's just a mystery

But is it the real thing (that keeps me hangin' on)

[Chorus:Repeat x2]
