No other sound is quite the same as your name
No touch can do him as much
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothin' like the real thing
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothin' like the real thing
I've got your picture hanging on the wall
But it can't seem to come to me when I call your name
I realize it's just a picture in her brain
I read your letters when you're not here
But they don't move me, they don't do me like when I hear
Your sweet voice whisperin' in my ear
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothin' like the real thing
I play my games of fantasy
I pretend, but I know in reality
I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me
No other sound is quite the same as your name
No touch can do him as much
You make me feel better
No less than ever
I've got some memories to look back on
But don't they help when you're gone?
I'm never aware
Nothing can take the place of your being there
So glad we got the real thing, baby
So glad we got the real thing
So glad we got the real thing, baby
So glad we got the real thing
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothin' like the real thing
Ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothin' like the real thing
