Real Thing Lyrics by JMSN

Velvet

2018

[Intro]
You know there's nothing like the real thing
You know there's nothing like the real thing
It's always got a little something
Yeah, come on, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
Yeah, come on

[Verse 1]
So I've been wasting time on worldly pleasures
Forgetting what I really need, yeah, oh
Every day just chasing gold and treasures
Till I got a flash of the truth

[Pre-Chorus]
And it opened up my mind
Filled me up inside (Filled me up inside)
Made me realize what's been missing (Made me realize what's been missing)
And it turned me upside down (Turned me up)
Blew me right off the ground (Off the ground)
Took me right back 'round to the beginning

[Chorus]
Yeah you know there's nothing like the real thing (Oh baby)
It's always got a little something (Oh baby)
It's close enough to get that feeling (Feeling, yeah)
But you know there's nothing like the real thing (But you know)
You know there's nothing like the real thing (Oh)

[Verse 2]
Said it's a lot to give up all I've gotten
All I want don't come for free, yeah, oh, oh
God only knows all of the birds that passed through
Till I got a flash of you (Oh, oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Opened up my mind (Opened up)
Filled me up inside (Filled me up)
Made me realize what's been missing (Realize what's been missing)
Turned me upside down (Turned me upside down)
Blew me right off the ground (Blew me off the ground)
Took me right back 'round to the beginning (Took me 'round to the beginning)

[Chrous]
There's nothing like the real thing (Nothing, nothing, nothing)
It's always got a little something (Always a little something)
It's close enough to get that feeling (Close enough, but you know, oh oh)
But you know there's nothing like the real thing (Nothing, nothing nothing, nothing, real thing)
There's nothing like the real thing (Oh)
You know there's nothing like the real thing (Oh)
You know there's nothing like the real thing (Oh)
You know there's nothing like the real thing (Like the real thing, oh)
Like the real thing
