Real Love Lyrics

We are lovers through and through and though we made it through the storm I really want you to realise I really want to put you on I've been searching for someone to satisfy my every need Won't you be my inspiration? Be the real love that I need Real love, I'm searching for a real love Someone to set my heart free Real love, I'm searching for a real love I'm out to have a real love When I met you I just knew that you would take my heart and run Until you told me how you loved for me, you said I'm not the one So I slowly came to see all of the things that you were made of And now I hope my dreams and inspiration lead me towards a real love Real love, I'm searching for a real love Someone to set my heart free Real love, I'm searching for a real love I'm out to have a real love Love so true, and oh baby, I thought that love was true I thought that you were the answer to the question in my mind But it seems that I was wrong, if I stay strong maybe I'll find a Real love So I've tried my best and prayed to God He'll send me someone real To caress me and to guide me towards a love my heart can feel Now I know I can be faithful, I can be your all and all Ill give you good lovin' through the summertime, winter, spring and fall Real love, I'm searching for a real love Someone to set my heart free Real love, I'm searching for a real love I'm out to have a real love Real love, I'm searching for a real love Someone to set my heart free Real love, I'm searching for a real love I'm out to have a real love See I'm searching for a real love and I don't know where to go Been around the world and high and low and still I never know How it feels to have a real love cause it seems it's not around Gotta end it in this way cause it seems he can't be found Real love, I'm searching for a real love Someone to set my heart free Real love, I'm searching for a real love I'm out to have a real love Real love, I'm searching for a real love Someone to set my heart free Real love, I'm searching for a real love I'm out to have a real love
