(s. climie, b. burnette, d. morgan)



Been hurt before, lost many wars

And you realize the danger you're in

You given your heart to make a new start

You're taking a chance you'll get hurt again



Don't be afraid, it don't have to be that way

Remember, that, love, love in the right hands

Is like sunlight burning through in the morning sky

I said, love, love in the right hands

Is such a powerful thing so put your hands in mine



I'll be there for you, I'll help you get through

When the pressures of this will surround you

You know it will rain but ( ) from the pain

You'll find shelter in my arms around you



But don't be afraid, you gotta have faith in me

Remember, I said, love, love in the right hands

Is like sunlight burning through in the morning sky



I said, love, love in the right hands

Is such a powerful thing so put your hands in mine



And I will always try

I promise you I'll never let you down

Will ever make you cry inside my heart

We'll always be together, I'll be true to you forever

All of my live



And I will always try

I promise you I'll never let you down

Will ever make you cry inside my heart

We'll always be together, I'll be true to you forever

All of my live



Love in the right hands

Like sunlight burning through in the morning sky

I said, love, love in the right hands

Such a powerful thing so put your hands in mine

Love, love in the right hands

Like sunlight burning through in the morning sky

I said, love, love in the right hands

Is such a powerful thing so put your hands in mine

Love In The Right Hands

Rod Stewart's "Love In The Right Hands" stands as a quintessential example of his late-career rock and roll revival, blending his signature vocal charisma with a polished, mid-tempo rock arrangement. Released following his extensive touring history, the track exemplifies Stewart's ability to craft anthemic songs that bridge his classic 1970s sound with contemporary production values. While often associated with the broader catalog of his Atlantic Crossing era, the song reflects a matured artistry that prioritizes melodic clarity and emotional resonance over complex instrumentation. It serves as a testament to his enduring appeal, capturing the spirit of a performer who has consistently delivered high-quality recordings throughout his decades-long career. The composition remains a staple for fans seeking the authentic rock energy that defined Stewart's most celebrated performances.
