Lyrics Lisa Stansfield

Lisa Stansfield

It's Got to Be Real

All my life I keep on searching for that special thing

How I've tried to always find a love and understanding

To always see the light of day and to know that I am living

All my life I won't take if I'm not giving

Only when the rain comes down

Only when the lightning strikes me

Will I find the answer for myself

It's got to be real

Be the best nothing less than wonderful

It's got to be real this time

What's waiting there inside

It's got to be real

Knowing love know it can be powerful

It's got to be really love

So we can rise above

All my life I try to see the love inside myself

And I keep on trying in no uncertain terms

To let my light shine through

Only when the rain comes down

Only when the lightning strikes me

Will I find the answer for myself

It's got to be real

Be the best nothing less than wonderful

It's got to be real this time

What's waiting there inside

It's got to be real

Knowing love know it can be powerful

It's got to be really love

So we can rise above

To always see the light of day and to know that I am living

All my life I won't take if I'm not giving

Only when the rain comes down

Only when the lightning strikes me

Will I find the answer for myself

It's got to be real

Be the best nothing less than wonderful

It's got to be real this time

What's waiting there inside

It's got to be real

Knowing love know it can be powerful

It's got to be really love

So we can rise above
