(Joe Tex, Additional words & music by Carly Simon)
You had better hold on
Hold on to what you've got
You had better hold on
Hold on to what you've got [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/carly_simon/hold_what_youve_got.html ]
'Cause if you think
Nobody else wants it
Just throw it away
And you will see
Somebody else will have it
Before you can count 1-2-3
You take love for granted
And it's gone like a bandit
And this loneliness cuts like a knife
When you see what you've lost
It's already cost
The one you could love your whole life
