Ain't nothing like the real thing baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I've got your picture hanging on the wall
But it can't see or come to me
When I call your name
I realize it's just a picture in a frame
I read your letters but you're not near
But they don't move me they don't groove me
Like when I hear you sweet voice whispering in my ear
Oh ain't nothing like the real thing baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing

I pretend I know in reality
Need a shelter of your arms to comfort me
No other sound is quite the same as your name
No touch can do half as much to make me feel bad
Oh I've got two memories to look back on
Though they help me when you're gone
And I'm well aware
Nothing can take the place you've been there
Oh so glad we got the real thing baby
So glad we got the real thing no no
Ain't nothing like the real thing baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing baby oh no
Ain't nothing like the real thing baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing no baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing baby
Nothing like you baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing no no baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing baby
Ain't nothing like you
Baby like the
