Real Thing Lyrics
Jamie's in love
She's got the summer blowing through her hair
She turns it up
She says, "Tonight, you take me anywhere"
Bobby's in luck
He's got a fire burning in his eyes
He turns it up
And he says, "Girl, you better hold on tight"
'Cause this is the real thing
Love changes everything
This is night when every heart's exploding
The real thing
Slow down; it's happening
'Cause you got time to burn
In the heat of the moment
That summer radio
Fireworks off the patio
A 3 AM string of green lights in a row
And the real thing
Love can change anything
If you can just let go
Let's go
Jamie's alive
She's got him rushin' through her veins tonight
So hit the lights
It feels too good to ever say goodbye
'Cause this is the real thing
Love changes everything
This is night when every heart's exploding
The real thing
Slow down; it's happening
'Cause you got time to burn
In the heat of the moment
That summer radio
Fireworks off the patio
A 3 AM string of green lights in a row
And the real thing
Love can change anything
If you can just let go
Can't put the brakes on this runaway train
'Cause this is the heartache that won't go away
Jamie's in love
She's got the summer blowing through her hair
'Cause this is the real thing
Love changes everything
This is night when every heart's exploding
The real thing
Slow down; it's happening
'Cause you got time to burn
In the heat of the moment
That summer radio
Fireworks off the patio
A 3 AM string of green lights in a row
And the real thing
Love can change anything
If you can just let go
Just let go
Jamie, just let go
She's got the summer blowing through her hair
She turns it up
She says, "Tonight, you take me anywhere"
He's got a fire burning in his eyes
He turns it up
And he says, "Girl, you better hold on tight"
Love changes everything
This is night when every heart's exploding
The real thing
Slow down; it's happening
'Cause you got time to burn
In the heat of the moment
That summer radio
Fireworks off the patio
A 3 AM string of green lights in a row
And the real thing
Love can change anything
If you can just let go
Let's go
She's got him rushin' through her veins tonight
So hit the lights
It feels too good to ever say goodbye
Love changes everything
This is night when every heart's exploding
The real thing
Slow down; it's happening
'Cause you got time to burn
In the heat of the moment
That summer radio
Fireworks off the patio
A 3 AM string of green lights in a row
And the real thing
Love can change anything
If you can just let go
'Cause this is the heartache that won't go away
She's got the summer blowing through her hair
Love changes everything
This is night when every heart's exploding
The real thing
Slow down; it's happening
'Cause you got time to burn
In the heat of the moment
That summer radio
Fireworks off the patio
A 3 AM string of green lights in a row
And the real thing
Love can change anything
If you can just let go
Just let go
Jamie, just let go

"This is the Real Thing, love can change anything." A guy realizing for the first time maybe this isn't just a crush, maybe its love (the "real thing") and that now love changes everything and his girl comes first
sounds like 80's or old music... it ok tho... sounds like BJ..ha.ha
This is such a great song! I mean the message, "Love can change anything if you just let go" is so great. Everyone should live there lives like that. Boys Like Girls is LOVE
