about

Little soulful tune "bout when that true feeling comes your way. Nice little conga intro by Vic, with the horn and flute lines weaving back and forth behind the heart-felt vocals of Emy that ride over the rock solid rhythmic foundation laid by Phil and Rich.

lyrics

The Real Thing
by John Beccia

No longer lost and alone or being left on your own
When it’s the real thing
Now you can trust someone else as you are looking toward what lies ahead
You don’t have to be who you’re not
You don’t want to lose what you’ve got
When it’s the real thing..........When it’s the real thing
When it’s the real thing..........When it’s the real thing

No longer wonderin’ what’s wrong , you feel just like you belong
When it’s the real thing C7
No longer stuck in a rut.... cause you are part of what seems to be true
And now that your love means so much
It fills you with each tender touch
When it’s the real thing..........When it’s the real thing
When it’s the real thing..........When it’s the real thing

Instrumental Break


You’ve given into the urge you know that love can be yours
When it’s the real thing
Just like when lightning will strike, you find it burning way down in your soul
Inside of your heart you receive
This feeling that makes you believe
When it’s the real thing..........When it’s the real thing
When it’s the real thing..........When it’s the real thing
When it’s the real thing..........When it’s the real thing
When it’s the real thing..........When it’s the real thing
