| Mm hmm…
 | 
| There was no doubt in your mind she’d stay
 | 
| There were no second thoughts 'til today
 | 
| 'Cause somethin' 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 'til the very end
 | 
| 'Cause nothin' will ever fall through
 | 
| Stayin' 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)… |
