Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing (feat. Patti LaBelle)

Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby Ain't nothing like the real thing No, no Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby Ain't nothing like the real thing (Patti LaBelle) I got your picture hangin' on the wall It can't see or come to me when I call your name I realize it's just a picture in a frame (Nate) I read your letters when you're not near But they don't move me And they don't groove me like when I hear Your sweet voice whispering in my ear Don't you know Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby Ain't nothing like the real thing (Patti LaBelle) I play the game, a fantasy I pretend I'm not in reality I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me (Shawn/Patti LaBelle) No other sound is quite the same as your name No touch can do half as much to make me feel better So let's stay together (Wanya) I got some memories to look back on And though they help me when you phone I'm well aware nothing can take the place of being there Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby Ain't nothing like the real thing Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby Ain't nothing like the real thing (Patti LaBelle) Ain't nothing like the real thing (Wanya) I've be searching but never found (Patti LaBelle/BIIM) I've be searching for the real thing, baby I've be searching (Ain't nothing like the real thing) Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby Singin' Boyz II Men (Ain't nothing like the real thing)
