Real Thing

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

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

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

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)

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

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 right off the ground)
Took me right back 'round to the beginning (took me 'round to the beginning)

'Cause nothing like the real thing (nothing nothing nothing)
It's always got a little something (it always got a little something)
It's close enough to get that feeling (close enough much oh)
But you know there's nothing like the real thing (nothing nothing nothing nothing, real thing)
'Cause 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
