I've waited for so long
Thinking the perfect love would happen by
Dreaming of a picture I had painted
Wanted so much for this love to be mine
But all along, I felt something deep inside
Saying, "There is more than fantasy,"
Suddenly, I realized,
It's real
I finally found a love that's real
It's a fact not a fantasy
He's shown me that he cares for me
It's real
I never knew how real love could make me feel
If real love's just a dream to you
He can make your dreams come true
It's real
I wanted to feel a love so true
Thinking if I waited long enough
I'd feel it through and through
But once I realized I could be complete and free,
I let him change my world;
He helped me believe in me
I needed someone to take my hurt away
Jesus cared enough to show me
New love everyday
It's real
I finally found a love that's real
It's a fact not a fantasy
He's shown me that he cares for me
It's real
I never knew how real love could make me feel, mmm...
If real love's just a dream to you
He can make your dreams come true
It's real
(Oh, it's real)
I know it because he's shown me real love
(It's real)
I don't hurt anymore
(Oh, it's real)
'Cause he's shown me real love, yeah
(Oh, it's real)
It's real
I finally found a love that's real
It's a fact not a fantasy
He's shown me that he cares for me
It's real
I never knew how real love could make me feel, oh...
If real love's just a dream to you
He can make your dreams come true
It's real
