Don’t Put Good Loving Up On A Shelf (EN)


      Don't Put Good Lovin' Up On A Shelf - Matthews & Hoeve
As I flopped down in my recliner
I know that something don’t feel right
I remember when my baby
used to kiss and squeeze me tight

I dont’want this to be another love song gone wrong
I dont’want this to be another love song gone wrong

If you don’t nurture your loving
You will be – hey fella!
all alone one day… crying

Now wait a minute!
There is something you can do
(Tell me!)

Gonna take a pair of scissors
and clip some roses from my neighbour’s vine
I will leave a note and some dollar bills
to make up and easy my mind

I dont’want this to be another love song gone wrong
I dont’want this to be another love song gone wrong

Never take your love for granted
or you will end up empty-handed

Don’t put good loving up on a shelf
Keep showing you care
Don’t put good loving up on a shelf
Never take for granted she will always be there

Dust up that old cardboard table
Blow some kisses from your heart
Tell your honey: come on over
It ain’t no science, ain’t no art
– it’s simple…

Dont’want this to be another love song gone wrong
Dont’want this to be another love song gone wrong

If you don’t nurture your loving
You will be – hey fella!
all alone one day…

Don’t put good loving up on a shelf (No!)
Don’t put good loving up on a shelf (No!)

… Never take for granted she will always be there
… Someone could be stealing her away from you
… Get up from that recliner and show her you still care
