This Is Not Real Love Lyrics by George Michael

This Is Not Real Love

[Feat. Mutya]
George:
Don't kiss me, darling
I want you to hear the things I say
I loved you in my way
But you know I'm gonna leave you
Mutya:
The clock was always ticking
And your heart,
Yes I know your heart is always on the run
George:
I hate what I've become
But I'm still gonna leave you
And I don't think you should stay for the night
Mutya:
Baby you know that my flesh is weak
You know I simply
Both:
I cannot sleep without you
My heart has simply nowhere to go
Mutya:
Nothing to hold
Those tears you're crying
George:
Time and time again you take me back in baby
Mutya:
You don't have to make it plain
Both:
This is not real love
Mutya:
Look at us dancing baby
Let's dance and show them all
[Dance and show them all]
How close we are
The lies have worked so far
So we go on deceiving
George:
But darling don't you know the time
Baby, look at yourself, holding back the tide
Like you've got something else up your sleeve
That's why I've got to leave
Both:
And I don't think you should stay here tonight
[Baby don't you know that my flesh is weak, you know]
I simply I cannot sleep without you
But someday I'll have nothing to show
[Nothing to show]
[Nothing to show]
I've nothing to hold
George:
Oh, baby, crying
All those simple things that won't come again
Oh do I have to make it plain
This is not real love
And I said this is not real love
Mutya:
Real love
Baby it don't glisten and shine the way it used to
George:
This is not real love [real love]
Baby think of all the promises I made on the day that I seduced you
Baby don't wait for me like some angel of tragedy
I have to set you free
Darling you should be long gone, oh long gone by now
You should be with someone, someone
Mutya:
Glisten and shine
You promised me
George:
You've gotta face it woman, you ain't ever gonna change me
Mutya:
Where will I go, what do I know
About life without you
You promised me you'd never leave me, no
This is not real love
