Lyrics

What you find, ah
(I think I love you, baby)
What you feel now
(I feel I need you, baby)
What you know-a
(Oh oh oh)
To be real

Ooh, your love's for real now
You know that your love is my love
My love is your love
Our love is here to stay

What you find-ah
(Got to be real now)
What you feel now
(What you feel now)
What you know-a
(One more time)
To be real

To be real
(Got to be real, go to be real)
To be real
(Got to be real, go to be real)
To be real
(Got to be real, go to be real)
To be real
(Got to be real, go to be real)

To be real
To be real
