Ain’t Nothing Like the Real Thing / You’re All I Need to Get By Lyrics by Chris Christian

I Want You, I Need You

0

I've got your picture hanging on the wall
But it can't see or come to me
When I call your name
I know it's just a picture in a frame
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, ooh...
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I've got your picture hanging on the wall
But it can't see or come to me
When I call your name
I know it's just a picture in a frame
I read your letters when you're not here
But they don't move me
And they don't touch me
Likе when I hear your sweet voice
Whispеring in my ear
Ooh, ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Whoa, ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I play the game of fantasy
I pretend that I'm not in reality
The shelter of your arms to comfort me
Ooh, I got some memories
To look back on
And though they help when you phone
I'm well aware nothing can
Take the place of your being there
Ooh, ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I will go where you lead
Always there in time of need
And when I lose my will
You'll be there to push me up the hill
You're all, you're all I need
You're all, you're all I need
You're all, you're all I need
Ooh, ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing...
