Real One Lyrics

I ain't gonna lie to you

I think I've got a real one here

And I'm the type of guy that don't think twice

I can't explain why to you

But nothing's ever been more clear

Love's a simple little thing that just feels right

Like getting butterflies when you're trying to get ready

Long first dates in old, big cities

Rooftop drinks when the sun gets setting

Dirty martini and a Maker's Manhattan

It seems like we were always meant to fall in love

And I wish you all could have it the same as us

Because we're laughing in a world gone dark

We're dancing to the beat of our hearts

And it feels like that's enough

When you've finally got a real one

I ain't gonna lie to you

It could take years and years

A couple broken hearts and a few long nights

But what's a little time to you- once you understand the deal?

Love's a simple little thing that just feels right

Like the arms of a friend when things get heavy

Trusty old dogs and rusty old Chevys

Ain't no such thing as having too many

Like sunshine and driving along to Tom Petty

It seems like we were always meant to fall in love

And I wish you all could have it the same as us

Because we're laughing in a world gone dark

We're dancing to the beat of our hearts

And it feels like that's enough

When you've finally got a real one

And we're still young

But maybe we're ready

Take her by her hand - if her old man will let me

Champagne popping under confetti

I'm her Barney

And she's my Betty

It seems like we were always meant to fall in love

And I wish you all could have it the same as us

Because we're laughing in a world gone dark

We're dancing to the beat of our hearts

And I swear - that's all that you'll want

When you've finally got a real one
