The Real Thing Lyrics by Betty Everett

0

[Chorus]
Well, it looks to me like this could be
The real thing
Well, it looks to me like this could be
The real thing
[Verse 1]
A change has come over me
My heart beats impatiently
I just can't wait (Can't wait) 'til tonight
'Cause I know he's gonna hold (gonna hold) me tight
[Chorus]
And it looks to me like this could be
The real thing
Well, it looks to me like this could be
The real thing
[Verse 2]
Lately, I've been actin' strange
In my life there's been a change
I just didn't know (How sweet) he was
And I'm so glad (To be) in lovе
[Chorus]
Well, it looks to me like this could bе
The real thing
Well, it looks to me like this could be
The real thing
[Bridge]
I keep walkin' 'round and 'round
Talkin' about the love I found
I get such a thrill in
My head keeps reelin'
I'm so absent-minded
But really, I don't mind
[Chorus]
Well, it looks to me like this could be
Well, it looks to me like this could be
Well, it looks to me like this could be
The real thing
[Verse 3]
Every time you call me, honey
I start to actin' funny
And when you're home (I feel) so good
And I you know you kiss me (Just like) you should
[Chorus]
And it looks to me like this could be
The real thing
Well, it looks to me like this could be
The real thing
[Outro]
Talkin' 'bout the real thing (Talkin' about the real thing)
Yes, I'm talkin' 'bout the real thing (Talkin' about the real thing)
Oh, baby (Talkin' 'bout the real thing)
Talkin' about the real thing
