Real Love Lyrics - Jimmies Chicken Shack

cover by Mike Doughty of Soul Coughing 

via Mary J. Blige via The Feelies 

(Vs.1) 

We are lovers true and through and though 

we made it through the storm 

I realy want you to realize 

I realy want to put you on 

I've been searching for someone to 

satisfy my every need 

won't you be my inspiration, 

be the real love that I need 

(Chorus) 

Real love. I'm searching for a real love 

Someone to set my heart free 

Real love. I'm searching for a real love 

(Vs.2) 

Oooh, when I met you I just knew that 

you would take my heart and run 

Until you told me how you felt for me 

you said I'm not the one 

So I slowly came to see 

all of the things that you were made of 

and now I hope my dreams and inspirations 

lead me to want some real love 

(Chorus) 1x 

(Bridge) 

I got to have a real love 

Loves so true and oh baby 

I thought that love was you 

I thought you were the answer to 

the question in my mind 

but it seems that I was wrong 

if I stay strong maybe I'll find my real love 

(Vs.3) 

So I try my best and pray to God 

he'll send me someone real 

to caress me and to guide me twards 

a love my heart can feel 

Now I know I can be faithful 

I can be your all in all 

I'll give you good luvin' though the summertime, 

winter, spring, and fall 

(Chorus) 2x's 

(During 3rd chorus) 

You see I'm searching for a real love 

and I don't know where to go 

Been around the world and high and low 

and still I'll never know 

how it feels to have a real love 

'cause it seems it's not around 

gotta end it in this way because it 

seems he can't be found 

(Chorus) 2x's
