Aint Nothing Like The Real Thing lyrics

Aint nothing like the real thing, Baby

Aint nothing like the real thing

Aint nothing like the real thing, Baby

Aint nothing like the real thing



Ive got your picture hanging on the wall

But it cant see or come to me

When I call your name

I realize its just a picture in a frame



I read your letters when youre not here

But they dont move me and they dont groove me

Like when I hear your sweet voice

Whispering in my ear



Chorus


I Play my game of fantasy

And I pretend that Im 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 quite as much

To make me feel better

So lets stay together



Ive got the memories to look back on

And though they help me when youre gone

Im well aware

But nothing can take the place of your being there



So glad weve got the real thing, Baby

So glad weve got the real thing

Aint nothing like the real thing, Baby

Aint nothing like the real thing
