Love is the real thing (You know)
Love is the real thing
La la la la (La love)
La la la
Love is the real thing (You know)
Love is the real thing
La la la la
[Verse 1:]
She is waiting in the office
For the bell to go
She is thinking of their meeting
Just a month ago
Now she's running through the people
Everyone's so slow
Now he holds her and he loves her
He tells her so and
[Chorus:]
La la la
Love is the real thing (You know)
Love is the real thing
La la la la (La love)
La la la
Love is the real thing (You know)
Love is the real thing
La la la la
[Verse 1:]
By the nightfall they have driven
From the world they know
She's so happy they're together
And their love will grow
[Bridge:]
And when you feel your chance has come
Who's going to throw it all away
And if there's someone left behind
You have to say that

And when you feel your chance has come
Who's going to throw it all away
And if there's some poor fool behind
They'll have to say
