美國兄弟雙人組[K-Ci & JoJo]──R&B/靈魂抒情曲──[Tell Me Its Real/告訴我那是真實的]
… Are you for real?
Like I am for real
Can we share love to last forever?
And if so, let me know
… Tell me its real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that its real
Dont let love come just to pass us by
Try, its all we have to do
Its up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more
… Baby, you told me that you love me and youd never leave my side
Through the bitter end, through the thick and thin
You promised me, baby, that you wasnt going anywhere, yes, you did
Baby, keep it real, let me know just how you feel
… Tell me its real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that its real
Dont let love come just to pass us by
Try, its all we have to do
Its up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more
… I cant explain the way you made me feel
Every time that you told me that you loved me
And you know you did
Too many times
Just when I thought that love could never be a part of me
Thats when you came along, you showed me happiness
Baby, you are the best, I think youre different from the rest
And I really love you
… Tell me its real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that its real
Dont let love come just to pass us by
Try, its all we have to do
Its up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more
… Tell me its real
This feeling that I feel
Tell me its real
For your love, I will do anything
… Tell me its real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that its real
Dont let love come just to pass us by
Try, its all we have to do
Its up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more
… Tell me its real
This feeling that we feel
Tell me that its real
Dont let love come just to pass us by
Try, its all we have to do
Its up to me and you
To make this special love last forever more
… Tell me its real (Ill be there for you, baby)
This feeling that we feel (if you be there for me, sweetheart)
Tell me that its real (I thought that we were meant to be)
Dont let love come just to pass us by (for eternity, I thought you loved me baby)
Try, its all we have to do (and mama told me take it slow)
(Boy you just dont know, anything about love)
Its up to me and you (if you and I were meant to be)
To make this special love last forever more
(Then you would know, youll be sure by the end of the song)
