(is This) Feeling For Real

Regine Velasquez · Other Songs - Regine Velasquez

I could never let you know what finally came over me

I can't begin to describe how you made me feel

I didn't believe it myself, I thought I was dreamin'

Now we're back together and I'll never let you go

I've been everywhere searchin' for the one

But no matter what I do I run into you

Told myself so many times I just won't do

But something's tellin' me it might be you

I wanna know

CHORUS:

Is this feeling for real

I wanna know you did to me, baby

I wanna know

Is this fellin' for real

I wanna know what you did to me, baby

I can remember the time my heart was badly broken

Can you tell by looking at me, I've been hurt before

Now my heart is beating so fast my body's trembling all over



Now the world is shiny and new

We're starting over again

I've been everywhere searchin' for the one

But no matter what I do, I run into you

Told myself so many times it just won't do

But something's telling me it might be you

I wanna know

(Repeat Chorus twice)

I've been everywhere searchin' for the one

But no matter what I do, I run into you

Told myself so many times it just won't do

But something's tellin' me it might be you

I wanna know

(Repeat Chorus to fade...)
