Real Thing

This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without

This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without

You're smart whereas I'm just dumb
You smile and then I succumb
I love watching you when you come

But how can there be so much bliss
In one spur of the moment kiss?
I guess when it's as good as this

This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without

This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without

And the moment that I began
To fly higher than Superman
Was when you whispered: "Yes, you can"

You knew just when to undress
You understand, whereas I just guess
But this is something we both possess

This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without

This is the real thing, there's no doubt
This is what love should be about
This is a feeling I never want to be without

Reel 2, Dialogue 2

And when you left your diary
I took the opportunity
To make a brief enquiry
About a name I could see
But when I dialed his number
To ask if he'd spent the night alone
He said: "I don't remember"
And put down the phone

I can't believe this, what were you thinking?
How could you do that? had you been drinking?
Do you want to know what made me do it?
Well it's because you drove me to it

Well you can think that if you want to
Do you really believe you had no choice?
Remember you're the one who
Slept with someone else
But you can't come here and say that
You've never loved me all along
It's kind of weird the way that
You can be so wrong

I can't believe this, what were you thinking?
How could you do that? had you been drinking?
Do you want to know what made me do it?
Well it's because you drove me to it

If you're so clever you'll already know why
I have to tell you this is: "Goodbye"
No, don't touch me, please don't come near me
Don't think about it, don't you hear me?

Rekindling

We dangled feet into a stream
Your smile was sweet, we ate ice cream
And we didn't have a fear

Made some vows like lovers do
Then came the rows and I blamed you
You said "I'll always be here"

You can't help but remind me
Of days that I left behind me
And then, can't do it again

I'm not seeing anyone as such
You'll agree, yes I thought as much
We both need some romance

Let's just relax, take it a day at a time
There are no going back's but if you bear that in mind
I'm sure we've got a chance

The danger with an old flame is
That it's never gonna have the same fizz
Oh but I, I want to try

Ringway To Seatac

You ask me how I feel, well suddenly this is all for real
It hasn't seemed like that 'til now, it's as if you almost were still mine somehow
I hope you've realised just how I'm being so civilised
But it's nearly time I went, we've got one last chance to have an argument

Watching you walk back to your car
Was the lowest point of my life so far

Don't stare into my eyes, I couldn't bear for you to realise
That I'm still desperately in love with you and darling that's all I can think of
It'll get easier every day, well I'll be five thousand miles away
And I'm good at hiding pain but now I really should get on that plane

And watching you walk back to your car
Was the lowest point of my life so far
And yet you still couldn't ever do
A single thing that'd make me hate you

Rotterdam

I thought you'd come round
And I know how this will sound:
I said so much yesterday that I shouldn't have

So what did I do
After I talked to you?
I should have gone home straightaway but I couldn't have

Oh I stayed with you and my heart began to sink
I wanted you but not the way you think

So what did I say?
I didn't mean it anyway
And I don't want anything that I should do

I know you're sad
Believe me, I'm feeling bad
If I could change everything then I would do

Oh I stayed with you and my heart began to sink
Oh I wanted you but not the way you think
