This Love is Real

I can taste your lipstick in the wine I can feel your heartbeat close to mine With your love wrapped around me I'm silent and still I know that this love is real I have tasted other lips I thought were true I have looked into the eyes I thought were you Now touching just to touch And feeling just to feel I know that this love is real Someone should tell our dreams when love is gone While still in slumber memories linger one Sometimes I lie awake in bed till dawn Thinking of you Now you're gone Tender is the heart that sleeps in rest Tender is the hope of tenderness Love thy neighbor as thyself And thou shall not steal I know that this love is real Love thy neighbor as thyself And thou shall not steal I know that this love is real Songwriters: John Prine, Lee Clayton
