Aint Nothing Like The Real Thing — текст песни (Elton John)

Duet with marcella detroit

Written by nickolas ashford and valerie simpson

Available on the album duets



Aint nothing like the real thing, baby

Aint nothing like the real thing

Aint nothing like the real thing, baby

Aint nothing like the real thing



I got your picture hanging on my wall

But it cant seem to come to me

When I call your name

I realized its just a picture in a frame





I read your letters but youre not here

They dont move me, they dont groove me

Like when I hear

Your sweet voice whispering in my ear





I play my games of fantasy

I pretend I dont see reality

I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me





I got some memories to look back on

Though they help me when youre gone

Im well aware

Nothing can take the place of you being there





No other sound is quite the same as your name

No touch can do half as much

To make me feel better

Lets stay together





Im so

So glad we got the real thing, baby

So glad we got the real thing

Aint nothing like the real thing, baby

Aint nothing like the real thing
