Real Thing Lyrics

One day soon you'll find me gone, have no idea of where I am
Search and search with no success, nightmares return each day

YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME WAITING (YOU KEEP ME WAITING)
YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME ASKING FOR MORE

Then you'll find me laughing at what you said behind their backs
Find the truth about it funny, find it so hard to take

YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME WAITING (YOU KEEP ME WAITING)
YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME ASKING FOR MORE

We play those games too often, we play out strangers in the bed
You search for something different, put the gun right to my head

YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME WAITING (YOU KEEP ME WAITING)
YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME ASKING FOR MORE

YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME WAITING (YOU KEEP ME WAITING)
YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME ASKING FOR MORE
(REAL THING) YOU ARE THE REAL THING (X4)

One day soon you'll find me gone, have no idea of where I am
Search and search with no success, nightmares return each day

YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME WAITING (YOU KEEP ME WAITING)
YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME ASKING FOR MORE

Then you'll find me laughing at what you said behind their backs
Find the truth about it funny, find it so hard to take

YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME WAITING (YOU KEEP ME WAITING)
YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME ASKING FOR MORE

We play those games too often, we play out strangers in the bed
You search for something different, put the gun right to my head

YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME WAITING (YOU KEEP ME WAITING)
YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME ASKING FOR MORE

YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME WAITING (YOU KEEP ME WAITING)
YOU ARE THE REAL THING (YOU ARE THE REAL THING)
YOU KEEP ME ASKING FOR MORE
(REAL THING) YOU ARE THE REAL THING (X4)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
