If I show you
Get to know you
If I hold you just for today
I'm not gonna wanna let go
I'm not gonna wanna go home
Tell me you feel the same

'Cause I'm for real
Are you for real?
I can't help myself
It's the way I feel
When you look me in the eyes like you did last night
I can't stand to hear you say goodbye
But it feels so right
'Cause it feels so right just to have you standing by my side
So don't let me go
Cause you have my soul

And I just wanted you to know
I don't wanna look back
Cause I know that we have
Something the past could never change
And I'm stuck in the moment
And my heart is open
Tell me that you feel the same

'Cause I'm for real
Are you for real?
I can't help myself
It's the way I feel
When you look me in the eyes like you did last night
I can't stand to hear you say goodbye
Well it feels so right
'Cause it feels so right just to have you standing by my side
So don't let me go

'Cause you have my soul
And I just wanted you to know

Hold (Hold) me down (me down)
Hold (Hold) me now
I'm safe (I'm safe)
I'm sound (sound)
When you're around

Hold (Hold) me down (me down)
Hold (Hold) me now
I'm safe (I'm safe)
I'm sound (sound)
When you're around

'Cause I'm for real
Are you for real?
I can't help myself
It's the way I feel
When you look me in the eyes like you did last night
I can't stand to hear you say goodbye
Well it feels so right
'Cause it feels so right just to have you standing by my side
So don't let me go
'Cause you have my soul
And I just wanted you to know

(I'm for real)
'Cause I'm for real
Are you for real?
I can't help myself
It's the way I feel
When you look me in the eyes like you did last night
I can't stand to hear you say goodbye
Well it feels so right
'Cause it feels so right just to have you standing by my side
So don't let me go
'Cause you have my soul
And I just wanted you to know

    For goodness sakes, there are no guarantees in life (just as a band never knows if they have a hit on their hands until the track's released). What is the alternative to a gamble; it's DEFEAT. I would hate to go through life wondering WHAT IF. Much like test taking, you never leave any question blank for that's an automatic ZERO. If you gamble, your odds are beter. Life is too short to be afraid, especially when it involves something as special as LOVE. As the people at Nike said (and cashed in on): Just Do It.
