Got To Be Real by Curtis Mayfield Lyrics

I can tell by the look in your eyes
Your heart is empty
And it comes to me with no surprise
Of how you got that way

And I know
Day by day
You try to hide
What's deep down inside
You
You've got to be real
To that self be true
Baby you've
You've
You've just got to be real
And you can count on me to see you through sugar
Oh baby

Don't you know
That I'm aware
I wanna be more than just a friend
I see you
I care
Let's let our love begin
And I know
Day by day
You try to hide
What's deep down inside
But you've got to be real
You've
For me you've got to be real
To that self be true
Ooh baby now
You've
Its you that's got to be real
But I'm desperate for you
To be real
Its the key to my heart
And your lies tear us apart

You've
We see the way to go
Just take it slow baby
To that self be true
I can do it for you baby
You've
Got to be real
(?)
Believe me I know
I know
Its so good for us
When you keep the trust baby
Let's get real
Feel me baby
Whatever (?) I just wanna spare
Oh you
Its you, its you
Don't be alarmed
We'll weather the storms
You do your thing
By my side
Ooh
You baby
There's a love to do
Don't let our hearts be empty
No more tears
(?)
Ain't no other love
Ain't no other love babe
Slappin' hands, making plans
You
Baby its you babe
Ain't no time like tonight
(?)
You've
Just got to be real
Its just got to be real
You just got to be real
For me baby
You've
Need no other love
Let the love come on, come on
On and on
Its got to be
Got to be real
Oh baby
(?)
You've
Me and you
Things to do
Just got to be, gotta be
By your side
