[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
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 are the real thing)
You are the real thing (You are the real thing)
You are the real thing (You are the real thing)
You are the real thing
