Classified - Love The One You're With lyrics

Well there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love
Come on, love the one you're with
Love the one you're with

All I can do is watch
As friends move out west
Thinking to myself, wondering who goes next
Kinda makes me feel like every
Day I lose a step i feel trapped and I gotta
Chew through the net now, life moves on
I ain't getting any younger
My high school friends all
Marrying their lovers
My ex got a baby and she's carrying another
While I'm still living with my mother
Whatever one by one we separate
Yeah we seen better days
Had some great times and
The memories never fade
But now it's time to move on
And get that new job
And be happy for the friends
That found true love
But by losing some friends I
Think I gained some
You see, I remember where I really came from
And it's the people that have
Been there from day one
It's called family, can't no one replace 'em
(Thanks, son)
I guess I been missing the meaning
It's like I've been gone without ever leaving
And now I finally see it
Disappeared for what seemed
Like ten light-years searching for love
But the whole time it's been right here

If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who
You're back talking to
Your concentration slips away
Because we're drifting so far away

Well there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love
Come on, love the one you're with
Love the one you're with

Yo, I've been told your friends
Are the family you choose
The family you don't appreciate
Until you lose excuse the attitude
I don't mean to kill the mood
Fuck it, I'm doing Luke
You do what's real for you
I been growing up
You can say I live and learn
My friends show me love and
I give it in return
A lot of things changed, though
Ever since I came home
Enfield isn't all sunshine and rainbows
See, after high school I never
Would have called it
Who would have went broke and
Who woulda made a profit
Who would get a job and
Who woulda went to college
Who became the potheads and
Who's the alcoholics
I never lost friends, I lost acquaintances
Time passes, it could cost a relationship
So don't be wasting it
Soon it could all just end
These are the good old
Days, there's some more, take 'em in

Well there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love
Come on, love the one you're with
Love the one you're with
