Lyrics
Keep It Real Words and music by Carole Nelson
Trying to find the words
To tell you what I?m feeling
You got to see me as I am
And not the way you want me to be
Sometimes I?m your lover
Sometimes I?m your friend
We?ve been through the bad times
Know we?ll make it to the end.
I?m a laughing fool for you
Do anything that you want me to,
I?ll beg, I?ll borrow, steal for you,
Got the feel, keep it real
Keep it real, keep it real,
.
Nothing less than happiness
Is what I want to give to you.
I?ll do my best to be the one
You come running to.
You?d do anything for me
And I?d do anything for you,
Honesty?s the policy
The one that?s going to keep us true.
I?m a laughing fool for you
Do anything that you want me to,
I?ll beg, I?ll borrow, steal for you,
Got the feel,
Keep it real, keep it real,
Love is the wrapping paper
Love is the glue
Love is the ball of string
That keeps me tied to you.
Love is in the ordinary
Love is in the everyday
It?s the little things that tell me
This love is here to stay.
