Chaka Khan - Medley: Love The One You're With/Sit Yourself Down lyrics

If you're frightened and confused

And you can't remember who you're talkin' to

If your concentration slips away

Cuz your baby is miles away

Chorus:

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...

Love the one you're with

Don't sit frightened, don't sit mad

Don't sit cryin' 'bout the good times you had

There's a girl sittin' right next to you

And she's waiting for something to do

Chorus:

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...

Love the one you're with

Turn your heartaches into joy

She's a girl, you're a boy,

Get it all together, make it nice

I won't give you no more advice

Chorus:

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...

Love the one you're with

When I get restless what can I do

When I need someone I think about you

I got to move on, not fade away

I'm only just growin' a little each day

I got to quit this runnin' around

Got to get rid of the blues

Got to find somebody to make me slow down

Chorus:

Oh lay it down

Sit yourself down, take a look around

Sit yourself down, take a look around

Sit yourself down, take a look around

Sit yourself down, take a look around

When I get older mellowed down

Get myself settled on a patch of ground

Takin' it easy, live every day

Me and the raven will fly away

Got to stop runnin', got to get rid of the blues

Got to find somebody who will love me

Chorus:

Oh lay it down

Sit yourself down, take a look around

Sit yourself down, take a look around

Sit yourself down, take a look around

Sit yourself down, take a look around
