'Til the Real Thing Comes Along

I know you’re waiting for your dreamboat to come in

Baby

And that you don’t see me as being him

Baby

I know you’re lonely and that’s wrong

So let me love you until the real thing comes along

Yes, I know you’re waiting for the planets to align

Baby

But until they do, here’s how you can fill the time

Baby

I may not be that special one

But let me try until the real thing comes along

Why live in a vale of tears?

Let me be the one until your prince appears

Then, who knows, you may come to see

That prince is me

I may not be that special one

But I can love you like the real thing

In the meantime, baby

Till the real thing comes along

Let me love you, darling

Till the real thing

The real thing

Comes along
