"When he held me in his arms
when he held me in his arms and said
you are the only one for me"
can't keep his mind on nothing else
for the good thing he found
Yeah if she's bad he can't see it
Turn his back on his best friend
tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'll give up all his comforts
go out and sleep out in the rain
"Baby that is how it's gonna be"
gives her everything that he has
tryin' to hold on to her precious love
cryin "Baby baby please don't treat me bad"
she can bring him such misery
he's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes don't ever see
So this man says he loves me he loves me
He gives me everything everything
tryin' to hold on to my precious love
He could never hold another girl
Oh you tell me you love me baby
a change is gonna come down
