This one of those songs that helps me in countless ways. Howard Tate, an amazing comeback story in itself.
GET IT WHILE YOU CAN
In this world where people are fighting with each other,
No one to count on...not even your own brother...
'Till someone comes along and gives you genuine affection...
(Chorus)
Get it while you can (Ooooooh)
Better get it while you can
Get it while you can
Don't turn your back on love
When you love somebody you're taking a chance on sorrow,
Who knows, baby, we may not, may not be here tomorrow...
Should someone comes along and gives you genuine protection...
(Chorus)
I wanna tell you a little bit about myself...
Once I had a good woman but I didn't count my blessings...
Oh I wish she could hear me to see, oh I've learned a bitter lesson...
So if someone comes along and gives you genuine affection...
(Chorus 2x)
Don't turn your back on love.
