I ain't the shine on a new gold ring More like the scuff on a worn-out string
But you see through the wear and tear Acquired truth, bold and rare
I don't need the world to know my name Long as you're beside me just the same
Can we turn the page, take it slow Find a rhythm only we'll ever know
I don't need a stage, don't need the lights Just a steady glow, I'll get love tonight
No rehearse lines, no scripted kiss Nothing feels better than as real as this
Ooh, as real as this Just you and me in a love that fits
They write our love like a perfect line But ours are sweeter, a little out of time
Let's break the rules, let's rewrite the rhyme Chasing truth in the in-between climb
Your laughter hums in my melody A better song than they'll ever see
Can we step outside what they all believe Build a tune that's ours to weave
I don't need a stage, don't need the lights Just a steady glow, I'll get love tonight
No rehearse lines, no scripted kiss Nothing feels better than as real as this
Ooh, as real as this Just you and me in a love that fits
Love's not a riddle, it's not a play It's a steady pulse at the end of the day
No need for crowds, no need for scenes Just you and me chasing quiet dreams
No borrowed truths, no lines to please Just your heart beat singing with me
I don't need a stage, don't need the lights Just a steady glow, I'll get love tonight
No rehearse lines, no scripted kiss Nothing feels better than as real as this
Ooh, as real as this Just you and me in a love that fits
Let the world keep spinning, we'll stay right here In a song that only we can hear
No borrowed love could feel like this Here with you, it's as real as this
