Gimme the Love (Something Real)

[DooWahDiddy]

Hey guys, I've got this new lyric and wanted to see what people thought of it. I think I'm happy with it, but I don't want it to be "list"-y. Let me know if you think it is!

It's for a female singer, and the music is sort of Motown-y; I imagine it with a trio of sassy black girls singing it, haha. Thanks for your feedback!



Give Me the Love (Something Real)

Chorus:
Give me the love baby yeah
Show me a sign
Give me the love yeah baby now
Don't waste my time

Verse 1:
I don't need your fancy car
You can keep your diamond rings
Just to be your shining star
That's what's in my dreams

Verse 2:
Don't care 'bout your charming mansion
Your 40-foot private yacht
You won't hold my love for ransom
My heart can't be bought

Pre-Chorus:
Do what you wanna do
But if you want me then oh
You've got to

Chorus:
Give me the love baby yeah
Show me a sign
Give me the love yeah baby now
Don't waste my time
Promises of the world
Might have worked for some other girls
But when it comes down to how I feel
There's one thing I need
Something real
Ooh, something real

Verse 3:
Take off those designer shoes
Forget the caviar and wine
If I am the one you choose
Prove to me that you're mine all mine

Verse 4:
Throw out all the checks you write
That's no way to make a start
Just be there to hold me tight
Show me that you really want my heart

Pre-Chorus:
Pay no mind if you must
But you know I wouldn't mind
If you'd just

Chorus:
Give me the love baby yeah
Show me a sign
Give me the love yeah baby now
Don't waste my time
Promises of the world
Might have worked for some other girls
But when it comes down to how I feel
There's one thing I need
Something real
Ooh, something real

Bridge:
You got it all but one thing's missing
We're negotiating when we should be kissing
Don't need to be showered with gifts from above
All you gotta do is shower me with love

Chorus:
Give me the love baby yeah
Show me a sign
Give me the love yeah baby now
Don't waste my time
Promises of the world
Might have worked for some other girls
But when it comes down to how I feel
There's one thing I need
Something real
Ooh, something real
