If you're down and confused,
And you don't remember who you're talking to...
Concentration slips away,
Because your baby is so far away...
And there's a rose in a fisted glove,
And the eagle flies with the dove!
And if you can't be with the one you love,
Honey, love the one you're with!
You've got to love the one you're with.
Don't be angry, don't be sad;
Don't sit crying over good times you had.
There's a girl right next to you,
And she's just waiting for something to do!
Yes, and there's a rose in a fisted glove,
And the eagle flies with the dove!
And if you can't be with the one you love,
Honey, love the one you're with!
You've got to love the one you're with.
Love the one you're with!
You've got to love the one you're with.
Turn your heart ache right into joy,
Because she's a girl and you're a boy!
So get it together and make it nice,
And you won't need any more advice.
Yes, and there's a rose in a fisted glove,
And the eagle flies with the dove!
And if you can't be with the one you love,
Honey, love the one you're with!
You've got to love the one you're with.
Love the one you're with!
You've got to love the one you're with...
