Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One, two, one, two, three, ah
[Verse 2]
Looking forward to seeing you
Why, it's been such a long, long time
Looking forward to feeling your
Love has been so heavy on my mind
[Verse 3]
On my mind
All the time
On my mind
[Verse 4]
Had a chance to look forward
To be part of your love in my dreams
But I can't be happy with
Fantasizing, instead of the real thing
[Verse 5]
The real thing
Not my dreams
The real thing
[Verse 6]
There are no words that can express the way I feel today
'Cause I feel today like no other day
Longing more and more for your loving
[Verse 7]
There are no songs that I can sing to ease my troubled mind
'Cause my troubled mind will be troubled blue
Until you say you're coming home to me
[Verse 8]
Let me hear you, sweet baby
Let me hear you say the words
Send your love in a hurry
Send it's melody via love bird
[Verse 9]
A love bird
Send your word
Via love bird
[Verse 10]
There are no words that can express the way I feel today
'Cause I feel today like no other day
Longing more and more for your loving
[Verse 11]
There is no other someone that can ease my aching heart
'Cause my aching heart told my troubled mind
The only remedy to this pain is your love, ooh, ooh
[Verse 12]
Let me hear you say, baby
"Everything's gonna be alright"
Stop my heart from aching
Stop my eyes from crying through the night
[Verse 13]
Through the night
I won't cry
Through the night
[Verse 14]
The real thing
Not my dreams
The real thing
Not my dreams
The real thing
Not my dreams
The real thing
