Carly Simon - Hold What You’ve Got lyrics
[Carly Simon - Hold What You’ve Got lyrics]
(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
'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

You had better hold on
Hold on to what you've got
You had better hold on
Hold on to what you've got
'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
