AIN'T NOTHIN'LIKE THE REAL THING, BABY
AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE THE REAL THING, NO ,NO
AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE THE REAL THING, BABY (AIN'T NOTHIN')
AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE THE REAL THING

OOH, I'VE GOT YOUR PICTURE HANGIN' ON THE WALL
BUT IT CAN'T SEE অথবা COME TO ME
WHEN I CALL YOUR NAME (WHEN I CALL YOUR NAME)
I REALIZE IT'S JUST A PICTURE IN A FRAME

I READ YOUR LETTERS WHEN YOU'RE NOT NEAR
BUT THEY DON'T ME AND THEY DON'T GROOVE ME
LIKE WHEN I HEAR (WHEN I'M IN YOUR ARMS)
YOUR SWEET VOICE WHISPERING IN MY EAR (IN MY EAR)

NO OTHER SOUND
IS QUITE THE SAME AS YOUR NAME (QUITE THE SAME AS YOUR NAME)
NO TOUCH CAN DO HALF AS MUCH TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER
SO LET'S STAY TOGETHER

OOH, I'VE GOT MEMORIES (MEMORIES)TO LOOK BACK ON
THOUGH THEY HELP WHEN YOU'RE GONE
I'M WELL AWARE (I'M WELL AWARE)
NOTHIN' CAN TAKE THE PLACE OF আপনি BEING THERE (BEING THERE)

AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE THE REAL, BABY (AIN'T NOTHIN'
AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE THE REAL THING, OOH BABY
REPEAT & FADE

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And আপনি my friend will see
You've got a friend in me (you've got a friend in me)

Ben, you're always running here and there
আপনি feel you're not wanted anywhere
If আপনি ever look behind and don't like what আপনি find
There's something আপনি should know
You've got a place to go (you've got a place to go)

I used to say
I and me
Now it's us
Now it's we

(I used to say
I and me
now it's us
now it's we)

Ben, most people would turn আপনি away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see আপনি as i do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(a friend) like Ben

(A friend) Like Ben
