"Your Unchanging Love" is a 1967 single released by American soul singer Marvin Gaye on the Tamla label.
Written by Holland–Dozier–Holland, the song was featured on Marvin's Moods of Marvin Gaye album. Released during a time when Gaye was releasing hit duets by Kim Weston and Tammi Terrell, this was a rare solo detour that was successful enough to garner a top 40 pop charting where it peaked at number 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 making it the fourth top forty single issued from Moods.
The song was musically conceived on the same musical background as Marvin's landmark single, "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)", and performed better chart-wise than their previous single, "Little Darling (I Need You)".
I'm gonna hold on
Hold on to your unchanging love
I'm gonna hold on
Hold on to your unchanging love
I need ya baby
Baby, I need you right now
Darling there comes a time in everybody's life
They may learn as I've learned
That being loved is more important
Than paintin' the town
Morning, noon and night
Cause night life may have bright lights
But I've learned in time they go dim
But your love and tender arms
I can always come home to them
And I'm gonna hold on
Hold on to your unchanging love
I'm gonna hold on
Hold on to your unchanging love
I need ya baby
Baby I need you right now
I used to have more friends that I can count
But now all of my so called friends are gone
Since I lost everything in my bank account
Darling I'm tired of running 'round
So in your arms I'm gonna settle down
Cause if I don't have a dime
I know your love is mine
And I'm gonna hold on
Hold on to your unchanging love
Hey, so I'll hold on, hold on to
Your unchanging love
I need ya baby
Baby, I need you right now
Darling, everybody needs somebody too
I need you, I know now
Nobody really loves me
Honey, honey, honey
The way you do
One more thing
I've changed girls in my life
As often as I changed my suit
Only to learn the only true happiness
Is being, honey, being loved by you
That's why I'm gonna hold on
Hold on to your unchanging love
I'm gonna hold on baby to your unchanging love
I need ya baby
Got to keep on holding on
I'm gonna hold on baby to your unchanging love
I need your loving
You got the kind of love that wont stop
