Duet with Porter Wagoner

Writer Dolly Parton

Copyright 1971



You came into my life at a time when I was down

And I thought I'd never love again but I think different now

You took my hand and helped me up and I thank you for your precious love

And words cannot express the way I feel but is it real

Is it real this love that you have offered me so freely

You tell me that you love me but darling do you really

Don't make me love and lose again don't make me go through that again

I've known that hurt and I know how it feels oh is it real

Well you could mend my broken heart with love as sweet as yours

And I want to believe it's real but how can I be sure

And you could heal the hurt I've known with the love that you have shown

And all the needs you have I fulfill but is it real

Is it real this love that you have...

Is it real
