Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
(Oh no, waiting on love)
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I've got your picture, nailed on the wall
It can't see or come to me
When I call your name
I realize it's just a picture in a frame
I need your letters, when you're not here
But they don't move me
And they don't groove me like when
I hear, your sweet voice, whispering in my ears
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I play my game, a fantasy
I pretend, I'm not in reality
I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me
No other sound is quite the same as your name
No touch can do half and much
To make me feel better (yes, they do)
I've got some memories to look back on
It's all I got when you're gone
I'm well aware, that nothing can
Take the place of you being there
So I better got the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
We got it, got it
We, we got it covered
Ooh, we got it
We got it
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing, ain't nothing
Ain't nothing nowhere (oh no)
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Come on, come on baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah (oh, no)
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh, no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh, no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh, no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
(Oh no, waiting on love)
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I've got your picture, nailed on the wall
It can't see or come to me
When I call your name
I realize it's just a picture in a frame
I need your letters, when you're not here

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh, no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh, no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing
