I remember the day when our paths crossed
Way back then, in North Berlin
We were a little lost
We sat outside, smoked and smiled
Even though it was a little cold
You hugged me close when it was time to go
And from then on I've known
This is real, this real
It's all that I'll ever know
I don't need no roof above my head
'Cause, baby, you're my only home
This is real, this real
It's all that I'll ever need
I don't need no riches to fill my life
'Cause, baby, you're like gold to me
And there've been days when times got hard
Life moves fast and it's a lot to ask
To share somebody's heart
You and I, we were eye to eye
Through the good times and the storms
Cannot say what the future will bring
But one thing is for sure
This is real, this real
It's all that I'll ever know
I don't need no roof above my head
'Cause, baby, you're my only home
This is real, this real
It's all that I'll ever need
I don't need no riches to fill my life
'Cause, baby, you're like gold to me
This is real, this real (ah-ah)
It's all that I'll ever know
I don't need no roof above my head (ah-ah)
'Cause, baby, you're my only home
This is real, this real (ah-ah)
It's all that I'll ever need
I don't need no riches to fill my life (ah-ah)
'Cause, baby, you're like gold to me
I don't need no riches to fill my life
'Cause, baby, you're like gold to me
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
