lyrics
In the dark, we've found light
From underground, we've taken flight
Life's chains try bind us down
But it's alright
Cause we've got that...
Shook the dust from my mind
Swung the gates open to the skies
Pulled the drapes from my eyes - to give way to the sun
Thought I knew what was true or false
You baby were my wake-up call
Got a swing band playing in my chest
My heart strings give me no rest
Our love's like a secret that only we share
The rest of the world gets left behind
But there's no fear of losing touch
Cause this is the real thing what we've got
We've got that na na na
This is the real thing what we've got
No matter what, we've got that
Like a bud at first light breaking open
This love keeps unfolding
And we don't know what life will bring
We just know that - we've got that...
We've got that na na na
This is the real thing what we've got
No matter what, we've got that
This is the real thing what we've got
No matter what, no matter what
We've got that
Our love's like a secret that only we share
The rest of the world gets left behind
But there's no fear of losing touch
Cause this is the real thing, we've got.
