It's Got to Be Real

All my life I keep on searching for that special thing How I've tried to always find a love and understanding To always see the light of day and to know that I am living All my life I won't take if I'm not giving Only when the rain comes down Only when the lightning strikes me Will I find the answer for myself It's got to be real Be the best nothing less than wonderful It's got to be real this time What's waiting there inside It's got to be real Knowing love know it can be powerful It's got to be really love So we can rise above All my life I try to see the love inside myself And I keep on trying in no uncertain terms To let my light shine through Only when the rain comes down Only when the lightning strikes me Will I find the answer for myself It's got to be real Be the best nothing less than wonderful It's got to be real this time What's waiting there inside It's got to be real Knowing love know it can be powerful It's got to be really love So we can rise above To always see the light of day and to know that I am living All my life I won't take if I'm not giving Only when the rain comes down Only when the lightning strikes me Will I find the answer for myself It's got to be real Be the best nothing less than wonderful It's got to be real this time What's waiting there inside It's got to be real Knowing love know it can be powerful It's got to be really love So we can rise above
