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
