Hold Her Lyrics


You gotta hold her now
Never leave her
Never let her goYou think you lost her number but you've only lost a little bit of time
She's waiting just to see you boy, a continental girl so fine
Mirrors on the ceiling make it hard for you to sleep at night
The opportunity is now
You know you got to do what's rightSo, you take yourself down to her
Before it gets too late
There's no need to telephone
Cause this can hardly wait
The meaning of a moment has never been so strong
A girl like this, a night like this
It's right where you belongYou gotta hold her now
Never leave her
Tell her how
You're gonna love her, squeeze her
Hold her now
Never leave her again

Never leave her again
(Don"t you go)She found you in a restaurant when you were with another girl
Remember?
You tried to tell her how it was just to live in a harmless world
Remember how she looked at you
Remember how she stole your eyes
And now you're all alone at night
Runnin' out of alibisSo, you take yourself down to her
Before it gets too late
There's no need to telephone
Cause this can hardly wait
The meaning of a moment has never been so strong
A girl like this, a night like this
It's right where you belongYou gotta hold her now
Never leave her
Tell her how
You're gonna love her, squeeze her
Hold her now
Never leave her again
Never leave her again
(Don't you go)You've got to take your time
Take your time
Take your time whenever you see her
Save her every moment you canWith your every wonderful feeling
Let her know that you will be her man
Open arms are never too open
Lovin' hearts are never too freeLet the circle never be broken
Let it be what you want it to beYou gotta hold her now
Never leave her
Tell her how
You're gonna love her, squeeze her
Hold her now
Never leave her again
Never leave her again
(Don't you go)Hold her now
Hold her now
Never let her go

Chaka Khan (born Yvette Marie Stevens; 23 March 1953 - Chicago, Illinois, USA), frequently known as the "Queen of Funk", is a 10-time Grammy Award winning American singer-songwriter who gained fame in the 1970s as the frontwoman and focal point of the funk band Rufus.

In 1964 at the age of 11 she formed her first group, the Crystalettes. While still in high school, she joined the Afro-Arts Theater, a group which toured with Motown great Mary Wells; a few years later, she adopted the African name Chaka Khan while working on the Black Panthers' breakfast program. After quitting high school in 1969, Khan joined the group Lyfe, soon exiting to join another dance band, the Babysitters; neither was on the fast track to success, but her fortunes changed when she teamed with ex-American Breed member Kevin Murphy and Andre Fisher to form Rufus.

Debuting in 1973 with a self-titled effort on the ABC label, Rufus was among the preeminent funk groups of the decade; distinguished by Khan's dynamic vocals, the group earned half a dozen gold or platinum albums.

While still a member of the group in 1978, Khan embarked on a successful solo career. Her signature hits, both with Rufus and solo, include "Tell Me Something Good", "Sweet Thing", "Ain't Nobody", "I'm Every Woman", "I Feel for You" and "Through the Fire".
