Begun in 1970 by Chris Amoo, Dave Smith, Kenny Davis and Ray Lake, The Real Thing's live, progressive soul-influenced covers of American hits attracted enough attention for them to secure a recording deal with EMI.
'You to me are everything' - The Real Thing lyrics
I would take the stars out of the sky for you
Stop the rain from falling if you asked me to.
I'd do anything for you your wish is my command
I could move a mountain when your hand is in my hand.
Words cannot express how much you mean to me.
There must be some other way to make you see.
If it takes my heart and soul you know
I'd pay the price.
Everything that I possess I'd gladly sacrifice.
Oh you to me are everything
The sweetest song that I could sing
Oh baby Oh baby
To you I guess I'm just a clown
Who picks you up each time you're down
Oh baby Oh baby
You give me just a taste of love
To build my hopes upon.
You know you've got the power girl
To keep me holding on.
So now you've got the best of me
Come on and take the rest of me
Oh baby
Though you're close to me we seem so far apart.
Maybe given time you'll have a change of heart.
If it takes forever girl then I'm prepared to wait.
The day you give your love to me won't be a day too late
Oh you to me are everything.
The sweetest song that I could sing.
Oh baby Oh baby
To you I guess I'm just a clown
Who picks you up each time you're down
Oh baby Oh baby
You give me just a taste of love
To build my hopes upon.
You know you've got the power girl
To keep me holding on.
So now you've got the best of me
Come on and take the rest of me
Oh baby
Oh you to me are everything. the sweetest song that I could sing.
(Your the sweetest song that I could sing.) Oh baby (oh baby) Oh baby
(yes I need you baby)
You to me are everything.
The sweetest song that I could sing.
Oh baby (you are everything to me)
Oh baby (cant you see)
You to me are everything.
The sweetest song that I could sing.
(Your the sweetest song that I could sing.)
Oh baby Oh baby (you're everything)
You to me are everything.
The sweetest song that I could sing.
Oh baby Oh baby (your the sweetest song)
You to me are everything.
The sweetest song that I could sing.
