"If You Ever Get Your Hands On Love" lyrics - GLADYS KNIGHT AND THE PIPS

So you're thinking about
Letting him go
'Cause you found another
You think you love more

Take my advice and give it one more try
You better hold on to that guy
Do all you can to make sure
Or you'll be left with emptiness
'Cause the love you're chasing after
Maybe the love you already possess

'Cause true love only comes once
Try not to let it walk out the door

If you ever get your hands on love
Don't you never ever let it go
If you ever get your hands on love
You better make it grow and grow

You better hold on (hold on)
To the bird in the hand
Don't be a fool
For the two in the bush

Grass may be greener
On another man's land
But that don't mean
It's as good as it looks

Keep the love light shining
In the eyes of the one
You call your own
And as long as you see it glowing
You can be sure
You'll never go wrong

These things I'm telling you
Happened to me before

If you ever get your hands on love
Don't you never ever let it go
If you ever get your hands on love
You better make it grow and grow

Mmmmm

(Kept it glowing)
Kept that fire
Burning
In his eyes

(Kept that love light shining)

So you better keep that love light shining
In the eyes of the one you call your own

If you ever get your hands on love
Don't you never ever let it go
If you ever get your hands on love
You better make it grow and grow

If you ever get your hands on love
Don't you never ever let it go
If you ever get your hands on love
You better make it grow and grow
