The Real Thing Lyrics by Ron Pope
I will stop moving my mouth for a second,
This wasn’t part of the plan.
All I ever wanted was,
A remedy that I could trust.
I don’t need a lifeline, I don’t want a rescue,
(it’s) Just that when the dark falls, you I should be next to.
I keep my walls up, I’m trying to change that,
You are my hometown, feels like a flashback.
I hear your sweet song and every word I sing,
I’ve seen enough fake to know the real thing.
This should be easier but that’s just not how we work,
I know I’m difficult and sometimes my love’s a curse.
But you made your bed and I know that’s where I wanna sleep,
Trust me, your secrets I can keep.
I don’t need a lifeline, I don’t want a rescue,
(it’s) Just that when the dark falls, you I should be next to.
I keep my walls up, I’m trying to change that,
You are my hometown, feels like a flashback.
I hear your sweet song and every word I sing,
I’ve seen enough fake to know the real thing.
I used to be afraid, but I am not now,
I drove myself away but I have learned how,
To let the fear go and let the light in,
No I won’t let you down again.
I keep my walls up, I’m trying to change that,
You are my hometown, feels like a flashback.
I hear your sweet song and every word I sing,
I’ve seen enough fake to know the real thing.
I keep my walls up, I’m trying to change that,
You are my hometown, feels like a flashback.
I hear your sweet song and every word I sing,
I’ve seen enough fake to know the real thing.
