Ain t Nothing Like The Real Thing - Marvin Gaye Feat. Tammi Terrell
Ooh, baby
Ainâ²t nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing, no, no
Ainâ²t nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing (oh, honey)
I've got your picture hanginâ² on the wall
But it canâ²t see or come to me when I call your name
I realize it's just a picture in a frame
Ooh, I read your letters when youâ²re not near
But they don't move me and they donâ²t groove me
Like when I hear your sweet voice whispering in my ear
Don't you know?
Ainâ²t nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I play my game of fantasy
I pretend, but I know in reality
I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me
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
Iâ²ve got some memories to look back on
Though they help me when youâ²re gone
I'm well aware
Nothing can take the place of your being there, oh
So glad weâ²ve got the real thing, baby
So glad we've got the real thing
Oh, Marvin (I know, honey)
Ainâ²t nothing like the real thing, baby (so glad)
(So glad, oh, darling)
Ain't nothing like the real thing, talk to me
Ainâ²t nothing like the real thing, baby (ooh, oh, I'm so glad)
Ain't nothing like the real thing
