Take Him While You Can

(альбом: Leaving It All Behind - 1969)

Mm hmm...
There was no doubt in your mind she'd stay
There were no second thoughts till today
'Cause something has fallen through
She said she don't want you

But someday she'll be back again
In some way she will understand
How much she needs her man

Oh, so come on, come on (take him by the hand) take him by the hand
Come on, come on and (take him while you can) take him while you can
(Please understand, understand, understand, understand)
Oh, she could understand!

Love him now and in awhile
You will see dreams made before your eyes, ah-hah
Mm, you give some sign, tell him what's on your mind
Then you watch the love in his eyes, child

You're happy to be home again
Happy to be home again
All the love you're gonna lend
Every day till the very end

'Cause nothing will ever fall through
Staying close, she's never gonna leave you

Someday, yeah, she'll realize
In some way, what she might have lost
If she ever thought she didn't need her man

Ah, so come on, come on (take him by the hand) take him by the hand, now now!
(Come on, come on and take him while you can) try to make him understand!
(Come on, come on, take him by the hand) take him by the hand!
Hey-hey-hey... (take him while you can) don't you understand?!
(Come on, come on, take him by the hand) I know, I know you understand, baby!
(Come on, come on and take him while you can) oh...
(Come on, come on, take him by the hand) won't you take him, nah nah nah...
(Come on, come on and take him while you can)...
