Real One
I ain't gonna lie to you
I think I've got a real one here
And I'm the type of guy that don't think twice
I can't explain why to you
But nothing's ever been more clear
Love's a simple little thing that just feels right
Like getting butterflies when you're trying to get ready
Long first dates in old, big cities
Rooftop drinks when the sun gets setting
Dirty martini and a Maker's Manhattan
It seems like we were always meant to fall in love
And I wish you all could have it the same as us
Because we're laughing in a world gone dark
We're dancing to the beat of our hearts
And it feels like that's enough
When you've finally got a real one
I ain't gonna lie to you
It could take years and years
A couple broken hearts and a few long nights
But what's a little time to you- once you understand the deal?
Love's a simple little thing that just feels right
Like the arms of a friend when things get heavy
Trusty old dogs and rusty old Chevys
Ain't no such thing as having too many
Like sunshine and driving along to Tom Petty
It seems like we were always meant to fall in love
And I wish you all could have it the same as us
Because we're laughing in a world gone dark
We're dancing to the beat of our hearts
And it feels like that's enough
When you've finally got a real one
And we're still young
But maybe we're ready
Take her by her hand - if her old man will let me
Champagne popping under confetti
I'm her Barney
And she's my Betty
It seems like we were always meant to fall in love
And I wish you all could have it the same as us
Because we're laughing in a world gone dark
We're dancing to the beat of our hearts
And I swear - that's all that you'll want
When you've finally got a real one
I think I've got a real one here
And I'm the type of guy that don't think twice
I can't explain why to you
But nothing's ever been more clear
Love's a simple little thing that just feels right
Like getting butterflies when you're trying to get ready
Long first dates in old, big cities
Rooftop drinks when the sun gets setting
Dirty martini and a Maker's Manhattan
It seems like we were always meant to fall in love
And I wish you all could have it the same as us
Because we're laughing in a world gone dark
We're dancing to the beat of our hearts
And it feels like that's enough
When you've finally got a real one
I ain't gonna lie to you
It could take years and years
A couple broken hearts and a few long nights
But what's a little time to you- once you understand the deal?
Love's a simple little thing that just feels right
Like the arms of a friend when things get heavy
Trusty old dogs and rusty old Chevys
Ain't no such thing as having too many
Like sunshine and driving along to Tom Petty
It seems like we were always meant to fall in love
And I wish you all could have it the same as us
Because we're laughing in a world gone dark
We're dancing to the beat of our hearts
And it feels like that's enough
When you've finally got a real one
And we're still young
But maybe we're ready
Take her by her hand - if her old man will let me
Champagne popping under confetti
I'm her Barney
And she's my Betty
It seems like we were always meant to fall in love
And I wish you all could have it the same as us
Because we're laughing in a world gone dark
We're dancing to the beat of our hearts
And I swear - that's all that you'll want
When you've finally got a real one
