The Everly Brothers

I know love
I know love
Every time I try to hold on, it’s gone

Yeah, I know love
I’ve been so many kinds of crazy
Out on the street every day
Just tryin’ to keep what I got
Before they take it away
And when I had me a woman,
I tried to keep her up on a shelf
Soon as I looked away
She ran to somebody else
I know love
I know love
Every time I try to hold on, it’s gone

I know love
I know love
Every time I try to hold on, it’s gone
Yeah, I know love
I remember my daddy tellin’ me the ways of the world
He said: “Son you’re a fool if you try to own that sweet little girl
Keep her there beside you
Don’t you use no lock and key because a prisoner of love
has only got to be free.”
I know love
I know love
Every time I try to hold on, it’s gone
Yeah, I know love
Love is like the roses:
It can last through the sun and rain
But don’t you try to hold it
The thorns will cause you pain
I know love
I know love
Every time I try to hold on, it’s gone
I know love
I know love
I know love
Every time I try to hold on, it’s gone
Yeah, I know love
I know love
I know love
