The Real Thing
PARKER MILLSAP
Give me something real
Give me something true
Give me something I can feel
Give me some of you
Give me something flesh
Give me something bone
I can't hold you to my chest
Through the telephone
I'm through with the telephone
I can't stand a poor connection
Can't hold your hand through the screen
I don't want your reflection
I just want the real thing
You got something easy
You got something pure
You don't have to tease me honey
Give me some of yours
Give it to me straight
I'll take it unadorned
I been through your roses honey
I don't mind the thorns
I don't mind the thorns
I can't stand a poor connection
Can't hold your hand through the screen
I don't want your reflection
I just want the real thing
