Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby
|
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, no, no
|
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby (Ain't nothin')
|
Ain't nothin' like the real thing
|
|
Ooh, I've got your picture hangin' on my wall
|
But it can't see or come to me
|
When I call your name (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 and they don't groove me
|
Like when I hear (When I'm in your arms)
|
Your sweet voice whispering in my ear (In my ear)
|
|
No other sound
|
Is quite the same as your name (Quite the same as your name)
|
No touch can do half as much to make me feel better
|
So let's stay together
|
|
Ooh, I've got memories (Memories) to look back on
|
Though they help when you're gone
|
I'm well aware (I'm well aware)
|
Nothin' can take the place of you being there (Being there)
|
|
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby (Ain't nothin')
|
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, ooh baby
|
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby (Ain't nothin')
|
Ain't nothin' like the real thing
