From the recording Walk Right Through

Lyrics

THE REAL THING

Heard you on the radio today
Guess that you’re in town again
I’ve been busy too
Maybe not quite like you
Strange to hear you talking to
The dj we used to listen to

There’s somebody singing your song again
Guess you never told ‘em who wrote the end
You used to play a chord and ask me for its name
Now I keep hearing it again and again and again and again

So please don’t you call and ask me to your party
I’ll be working late tonight and tomorrow I’m in again
Tell Adam I’m sorry but don't you worry
This record I’m finishing yeah it’s the real thing

Oh Ohhhhhh

Took a while to get back up on my feet again
But as we always said the best songs are from
Love and pain
Until today I thought I’d left you all behind
I guess some things are sent to test us
Time after time after time after time

Please don’t you call and ask me to your party
I’ll be working late tonight and tomorrow I’m in again
Tell Adam I’m sorry but not to worry
This record I’m finishing yeah it’s the real thing

Tell Adam I’m sorry but not to worry
This record I’m finishing yeah it’s the real thing

Ohhhhhhh!

Some day and I feel it coming soon
You’ll hear what I’ve been doing and I hope you’re sitting down
It’s growing between these speakers and my soul
When you hear it you’ll start crying
But you’ll turn it up loud
You’ll say that’s the real thing
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
You’ll say that’s the real thing

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
You’ll say that’s the real thing

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
You’ll say that’s the real thing

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
You’ll say that’s the real thing

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
You’ll say that’s the real thing

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la laaaa
