Johnny wants to go to a party,
Johnny wants to take me out on a date,
Johnny wants to take me to dinner,
And he says that all of my plans can wait,
When I tell him my plans are different,
Johnny just starts messin' with my head,
Johnny says that he wants a girlfriend,
All he wants is someone easily lead.

And Johnny says he cares,
But Johnny doesn't know how to share,
Johnny wants to turn my life into his,
But Johnny doesn't know what real love is.....
real love is...

Johnny says he'll be in my life now,
But he only wants to be in my bed,
Johnny thinks he's being so cool now,
Never taking time to get in my head,
Johnny thinks he knows all about me,
In a little while he's going to find,
That the kind of girl that he thought I was,
Was really all just in his mind....

And Johnny, real love doesn't push,
Real love doesn't want for itself,
All I want is someone to be with,
I'm not a prize to sit on someone's shelf,
Johnny, don't you want to see,
The real person inside of me?

And Johnny don't you care,
That you really just don't know how to share,
You're looking for some bedroom-fantasy bliss,
How sad that you don't know what real love is....
real love is.
