The Real Thing
Written by: Jeremiah M. Durham
Verse 1:
There I go again
I remember when
I thought this girl would be number one
Then she tells me that we're done
Love's is no riding thrill
This not fake but it's real
I can tell you for myself
I put love upon a shelf
Bridge:
I decided to follow God's way
And love who ever he sends my way
Next time I'm gonna get what he has for me
No more living in a fantasy
Chorus:
Love's not just a one little fling
It needs to be the real thing
This is a shame
Most times ya don't even remember my name
I've put up with you for many years
Crying so many tears
I'm tired of spending on you my caching-caching
Next next time I do it's gonna be for another girl
Who is the real thing
Verse 2:
Had to think things over
And I thought its time to put ya out
And ya what I mean and what I'm talking about
It's time for a change
There's been nothing but storm and rain
Heartache and pain
Bridge:
I decided to follow God's way
And love who ever he sends my way
Next time I'm gonna get what he has for me
No more living in a fantasy
(Chorus x3)
Thought ya could leave me nothing (sure you did)
Thought ya could treat me wrong (sure you did)
Thought you ruined me (sure you did)
Thought ya hurt (sure you did)
(Chorus x2)
