Feels Like the Real Thing lyrics

From the moment we met,

ooh, I said I bet 

this feeling is love, love, love.

And when I held you tight, 

couldn't sleep in the night.

And now I just can't get enough of your love.

Now every time I'm away from you,

you don't know the heartache 

that I go through.

Feels like the real thing,

must be the real thing.

Baby, don't you know 

that it feels so good? Yeah.

Feels like the real thing,

can't you hear my heart sing

since you let me love you

like I knew you would? Yeah.

Feels like the real thing.

Now I can't concentrate, 

always show up late.

My head is in a spin, spin, spin.

And I turn on the light 

when I can't sleep at night.

Girl, if you could only see the shape I'm in.

You don't realize you've put chains on me.

Darlin', I don't wanna be set free.

Feels like the real thing,

must be the real thing.

Baby, don't you know 

that it feels so good? Yeah.

Feels like the real thing,

can't you hear my heart sing

since you let me love you

like I knew you would? Yeah.

Feels like the real thing.

Feels like the real thing,

must be the real thing.

Baby, don't you know 

that it feels so good? Yeah.

Feels like the real thing,

can't you hear my heart sing

since you let me love you

like I knew you would? Yeah.

Feels like the real thing.
