I've got the real thing, here by my side
Love, makes the world go crazy
And I think I'm crazy for you
I need someone who'll save me
And you know I'm talking to you
Take me to your heart
When it's cold and dark
I just want to feel the magic
Hold me in your arms
I've got the real thing, here by my side
Someone who needs me, holding me tight
I've got the real thing
Time, takes your life and chances
But we've all got so much to give
If real love is precious
Now I know it's time to believe
Every word you say
Shows me that you care
I just want to say
That you're the answer to my prayer
I've got the real thing, here by my side
Someone who needs me, holding me tight
I've got the real thing
Someone who loves me
Somebody does,
I've got the real thing (here by my side), here by my side (I need somebody)
(oh) Someone who needs me (here by my side), holding me tight (I need someone)
I've got the real thing (here by my side), here by my side (I've got somebody)
(oh) Someone who needs me (here by my side), holding me tight (holding me tight)
