She was like nothing I'd ever known

Her eyes shine like diamonds in a field of snow

The man that destiny led her to meet

Made her feel that life was now complete



A thousand days have passed

And nights gone by

You can see the glow slowly fading from her eyes

Though she denies her pain and her dismay

Know I said this to her anyway



Don't have to stay with someone

That makes you cry (makes you cry)

You'll end up killing all the love you have inside (have inside)

Can't hope to see the sun

If you don't open your eyes

Girl don't let real love pass you by



Ooh oh no

Ooh don't let real love pass you by



I know you nervous

But take it from me

'Cause you deserve so much more than you receive

Listen to your heart and let it show

Don't hold on to your pain

Just let it go, let it go



Don't have to stay with someone

That makes you cry (makes you cry)

You'll end up killing all the love you have inside (Have inside)

Can't hope to see the sun

If you don't open your eyes

Girl don't let real love pass you by



Don't have to stay with someone

That makes you cry (makes you cry)

You'll end up killing all the love you have inside (Have inside)

Can't hope to see the sun

If you don't open your eyes

Girl don't let real love pass you by



Oh yeah

Girl don't let real love pass you by

You can find a love you need

If you set your heart free

Don't...

Don't have to stay with someone

That makes you cry

Don't be discouraged baby

Don't let real love pass you by



Don't have to stay with someone

That makes you cry

You'll end up killing all the love you have inside

Can't hope to see the sun

If you don't open your eyes

Girl don't let real love pass you by



Don't have to stay with someone

That makes you cry

You'll end up killing all the love you have inside

Can't hope to see the sun

If you don't open your eyes

Girl don't let real love pass you by



Don't you let nothing

Don't let no one take you away from love

Don't let real love pass you by

Ooooo see I know, I know, I know

You'll be alright

Don't let real love pass you by

You just gotta believe in love, in love,

in love, in love, in love, in love



Don't let real love pass you by

Oh yeah

Don't let real love pass you by

Ooh, yeah

Don't let real love pass you by

Don't let, don't let, don't let, don't let

Don't let, don't let, don't let, don't let

Don't let real love pass you by

Oh yeah, oh

Don't let real love pass you by...
