Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing (Originally Performed by Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell)

Ain't nothing like

The real thing baby

Ain't nothing like

The real thing

Ain't nothing like

The real thing baby

Ain't nothing like

The real thing

I got your picture

Hangin' on the wall

It can't see or come

To me when I call your name

I realize it's just

A picture in a frame

I read your letters

When you're not near

But they don't move me

And they don't

Groove me like when I hear

Your sweet voice

Whispering in my ear

Ain't nothing like the real thing baby

Ain't nothing like the real thing

I play the game a fantasy

I pretend but I'm not in reality

I need the shelter

Of your arms to comfort me

No other sound is quite

The same as your name

No touch can do half

As much to make me feel better

So let's stay together

I got some memories

To look back on

And though they help

Me when you phone

I'm well aware nothing

Can take the place of being there

So glad we got the real thing baby

So glad we got the real thing

Ain't nothing like the real thing baby

Ain't nothing like the real thing

Ain't nothing like the real thing baby

Ain't nothing like the real thing
