And every time I, I do

It's really, really, really real.

In Kingston Town now
In Kingston Town now
Walked up and down now
Looked at the ground now
You went in labour
You went in labour
And all our friends came through
And all our friends came through
And all out friends came through

Chorus:
Baby, it's you
You are my sunshine
I am your guiding light
Just like a ship out in the night
Returning for a light, oo-ee

And it's really real
The way I feel
Really real
Look into my eyes
Look into my eyes
And you realise
And you realise
It's really, really, really, really real, oh yeah

And you're my woman (Oh yeah)
And you're my woman (Yeah, yeah, you're my woman)
And you're my woman (Oh, Lord, have mercy, take it)
And you're my woman
(Have her sing a song tonight, yeah)
And you're my woman (Ow, Lord, have mercy)
Oh, you're my woman (Ow)
Oh, you're my woman
You're my woman (Help me, help me)
And it's— mmm
And it's really, really, really,
really, really, really real
