The Real Thing

Here comes the night once again
I'll be feeling lonely
Oh, if only things could work out
Like you planWhere can love be
Tell me why it's so hard to find somebody
Who will stand by me
And take the time to understand
And so may love againI want the real thing or nothing at all
I need someone that I can be sure will
Catch me if I should fall
Someone who'll be there when I call
Then I'll know that it's the real thingI want the real thing to warm me each night
Someone to love me over and over
Making the future bright
Somebody who will make it all right
Just give me the real thingWhere is the moon, won't it smile
On just one more dreamer
Let your beams come down
And fill my empty roomHere comes the night
But if there's still a chance
That love can find me
I'll be here crossing my fingersI want the real thing or nothing at all
I need someone that I can be sure will
Catch me if I should fall
Someone who'll be there when I call
Then I'll know that it's the real thingI want to know for sure
That I can feel secure
Knowing I've found an everlasting love
Once I get that under control
Then I won't let goI want the real thing or nothing at all
I need someone that I can be sure will
Catch me if I should fall
Someone who'll be there when I call
Then I'll know that it's the real thing
