This Precious Time
You've been keepin' me lonely
You've been keepin' me down
And I'm sittin' here wonderin'
Why I'm still hangin' around?
The night's gone cold babe
Can't you see the signs?
There's no use wastin' this precious time
Look out the window
Oh, can't you see?
That the sun is settin' fast for you and me
Ah, you've grown hard babe
Can't you see the signs?
There's no use wastin' this precious time
When I should be out seekin'
Instead of just hidin'
I should be out laughin'
Instead of cryin', cryin', cryin'
Cause you've been keepin' me lonely
You've been keepin' me down
And I'm sittin' here thinkin' to myself
Why I'm stickin' around?
When you no longer hear me
And your eyes can't see
What this precious time
Means to someone like me
Oh, babe I wanna start livin'
Life's for the takin'
And I've gotta start livin'
If I wanna be tastin', tastin', tastin'
This precious time.
You've been keepin' me down
And I'm sittin' here wonderin'
Why I'm still hangin' around?
The night's gone cold babe
Can't you see the signs?
There's no use wastin' this precious time
Look out the window
Oh, can't you see?
That the sun is settin' fast for you and me
Ah, you've grown hard babe
Can't you see the signs?
There's no use wastin' this precious time
When I should be out seekin'
Instead of just hidin'
I should be out laughin'
Instead of cryin', cryin', cryin'
Cause you've been keepin' me lonely
You've been keepin' me down
And I'm sittin' here thinkin' to myself
Why I'm stickin' around?
When you no longer hear me
And your eyes can't see
What this precious time
Means to someone like me
Oh, babe I wanna start livin'
Life's for the takin'
And I've gotta start livin'
If I wanna be tastin', tastin', tastin'
This precious time.
