I'm tired of the small talk, the dancin' alone
The same old excuses on the telephone
I see you across the room, and you catch my eye
Something 'bout the way you move makes me wanna try

So let's skip the pretending, let's get to the groove
I've got nothing to lose, and everything to prove tonight

I'm lookin' for the real thing, oh-oh-oh
A love that makes my heart sing, oh-oh
So if you feel it too, baby, move in close
I'm tired of playin' games, I wanna get lost
In the real thing
(The real thing)

The music is loud, but the feeling is clear
You're whisperin' words that I've been wantin' to hear
Not just a compliment, but something that's true
My heart's beatin' faster, and it's all because of you

So let's leave the crowd behind, let's get to the groove
I've got nothing to lose, tonight
(Yeah)

I'm lookin' for the real thing, oh-oh-oh
A love that makes my heart sing, oh-oh
So if you feel it too, baby, move in close
I'm tired of playin' games, I wanna get lost
In the real thing
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Hum

No more maybes, no more lies
I see the truth right in your eyes
This is more than just a spark
It's a fire in the dark

I'm lookin' for the real thing, oh-oh-oh
A love that makes my heart sing, oh-oh
So if you feel it too, baby, move in close
I'm tired of playin' games, I wanna get lost
In the real thing
(Yeah)
(The real thing)
Oh, the real thing
Yeah, yeah
Real thing
Oh, yeah
