Kenny Loggins – The Real Thing Lyrics  Share

From Kenny Loggins's album: Leap Of Faith

Amanda, I know what you^,re thinking,
You and I have much to say,
And you^,ve been making you crazy,
Trying to understand
But it^,s impossible at your age.

I know I said I^,ll always try,
But you^,re going to bed alone again tonight,
And you lie there in the dark and wonder why.

I did it for you, and the boys,
Because love should teach you joy,
And not the imitation,
That your mama and daddy tried to show you.
I did it for you, and for me,
And because I still believe,
There^,s only one thing,
You can never give up,
Or ever compromise on,
And that^,s the Real Thing you need in love.

You^,re so afraid your life is over,
And nothing I can say can change your mind.
How can anybody be so selfish,
And treat you all so cruel,
Go on and scream at me and cry
I^,ll always hold you in my soul,
And I^,m never going to leave you all alone
But your daddy doesn^,t live here anymore.

I did it for you, and the boys,
Because love should teach you joy,
And not the imitation,
That your mama and daddy tried to show you.
I did it for you, and for me,
And because I still believe,
There^,s only one thing,
That you can never give up,
Never compromise on,
And that^,s the real thing you need in love.

Everybody^,s got a boat upon the ocean,
Not everybody^,s sailing out to sea,
And is there someone there for me?
I^,m ready to believe.

I did it for you, and the boys,
Because love should teach you joy,
And not the imitation,
That your mama and daddy tried to show you.
I did it for you, and for me,
And because I still believe,
There^,s only one thing,
That you can never give up,
Never compromise on,
And that^,s the real thing you need in love.
