Nothing much happens to me
I like to watch a lot of TV
Losing myself in the afternoon
In little slices of life
That are over too soon
I can't think of nowhere to go
I spend a lot of time at the show
And when I'm sitting real close
To the wide, wide screen
I feel like it's happening to me
I'm talking about a real emotion
Shining right on through
If your heart is true
You can make it
You don't have to fake it
With real emotion
There ain't no substitute
For your real emotion
When I get sad I can cry
And when I get old I can die
Knowing what life is all about
And watching it all go by
And I know that you understand
And when you come and love me again
It's like sitting real close
To the wide, wide screen
I feel like it's happening to me
I'm talking about a real emotion
Shining right on through
If your heart is true
You can make it
You don't have to fake it
With real emotion
Real emotion, there ain't no substitute for your real emotion.
Real emotion, it can happen to you, shining right on through.
If your heart is true, you can make it, you don't have to fake it.
Real emotion, there ain't no substitute for your real emotion, shining right on through.
If your heart is true, you can make it, you don't have to fake it.
Real emotion, it can happen to you, but it didn't end it.
Real emotion, there ain't no substitute for your real emotion.
