the real thing

The Maccabees

i'm blowing back the kisses i blew to you before, blew to you before.

and i'm tearing up the letters saying i adore, saying i adore you.

and i will wait for the real thing
i will wait for the real thing.

so you, you could wear a dress out, chin would hit the floor, my chin would hit the floor.

and you could flutter those lashes i've been trying to ignore, been trying to ignore you.

and i will wait for the real thing
i will wait for the real thing

you might as well quit if you haven't got it.
