Love is the one thing you can't pretend
I want you to know, I want you to remember
If you play a part there won't be an encore
I won't be there to smile and applaud your play
And I want to be near you
I want to be near you
And I want to be near you
But I still want the real thing
Love is the one thing you can't surrender
You wouldn't say and I just wouldn't listen
If we're playing parts there won't be an encore
Love is the one thing you can't pretend
Aah..Ooh
And I want to be near you
I want to be near you
And I want to be near you
But I still want the real thing
And I want to be near you
I want to be near you
And I want to be near you
