[Chorus]
Tell me it's real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that it's real
Don't let love come just to pass us by
Try
It's all we have to do
It's up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more

[Verse 1]
Baby, you told me that you love me and you'd never leave my side
Through the bitter end, through the thick and thin
You promised me, baby, that you wasn't going anywhere, yes you did
Baby, keep it real, let me know just how you feel

[Chorus]
Tell me it's real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that it's real
Don't let love come just to pass us by
Try
It's all we have to do
It's up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more

[Verse 2]
I can't explain the way you make me feel
Everytime that you tell me that you love me
And you know you did, so many times
Just when I thought that love could never be a part of me
That's when you came along
And showed me happiness
Baby, you are the best
I think you're different from the rest
I really love you

[Chorus]
Tell me it's real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that it's real
Don't let love come just to pass us by
Try
It's all we have to do
It's up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more

[Bridge]
Tell me it's real
This feeling that I feel
Tell me it's real
For your love
I will do anything

[Chorus]
Tell me it's real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that it's real
Don't let love come just to pass us by
Try
It's all we have to do
It's up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more

[Outro]
Do you really love me? Do you really care? You promised that
You'd never leave my side, you promised that you'd always be there
And Momma told me take it slow
Boy you just don't know
Anything about love
If you and I were meant to be
You would know
It would show
By the end of the son

K-Ci & JoJo

Brothers Cedric Hailey and Joel Hailey from Monroe, North Carolina make up the duo K-Ci & JoJo, the lead singers and half of the multi-platinum R&B group Jodeci along with brothers Mr. Dalvin and DeVante Swing. After three platinum albums with Jodeci, K-Ci & JoJo branched off and sang hooks for 2Pac on his singles “How Do U Want It” and “Toss It Up” in 1996 before releasing their first album Love Always in 1997. The album featured the #1 hit “All My Life,” which topped the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks and was nominated for two Grammys. Their second album, It’s Real, was released in 1999 and hit platinum status in part due to the success of the single “Tell Me It’s Real,” which peaked at #2 on the Billboard chart. Their third album, X, was released in 2000 and featured the hit “Crazy,” which peaked at #3 on the Hot 100.

The duo released two more albums—2002’s Emotional and 2013’s My Brother’s Keeper—but they didn’t contain any top hits. In 2010, they starred in their own reality show on TVOne titled K-Ci & JoJo…Come Clean which dealt with their alcohol and relationship issues as they attempted a comeback. They reunited with Jodeci to release the album The Past, The Present, The Future in 2015.
