The Real Thing

I've been looking for a way to fill this empty place

With everything from poetry to love in cyberspace

I contemplate my future, I analyze my past

I twist myself up like a pretzel in my yoga class

I find attraction in small distractions

It's a piece that I've been missing

A voice when I really listen

A groove that's going to make me sing

A feeling only love can bring

I'm ready for the real thing

Meditating

Medicating, looking for a fix

Now I'm getting to the bottom of my bag of tricks

Trying to catch a break with each ticking of the clock

Searching for the prize inside my cracker jack box

Something to save me

From all this waiting

It's a piece that I've been missing

A voice when I really listen

A groove that's going to make me sing

A feeling only love can bring

I'm ready for the real thing

I've looked around and I've discovered

Nothing can touch me like a lover

It's a piece that I've been missing

A voice when I really listen

A groove that's going to make me sing

A feeling only love can bring

I'm ready for the real thing
