Precious – A A J Russe

In my dreams I always return there
To the one place we played and won
You see it’s written down in the records
You can’t change it now that it’s done

I tell you it was a classic
There are some here still wear their scars
The are some who say what I did was drastic
Some say I took you too far

We just came for what we wanted
What we wanted I don’t recall
But we came somewhat mob-handed
Acting big but feeling small

Singing
Singing yeah

I want precious to be with me
I want precious by my side
I will swear this if I have to
I’ll need precious by and by

Now by jove I look in the mirror
I see my reflection has gone
I wonder is this what you see in me
Could this be where I’m going wrong?

Your herbal tea smells wondrous
But I can’t taste a thing
Is it true as you come closer
Even the rocks begin to sing?

I want precious to be with me
I want precious by my side
I will swear this if I have to
I’ll need precious by and by

I want precious to be with me
I want precious by my side
I will swear this if I have to
I’ll need precious by and by

I need precious
I’m getting older
I still need precious
I thought you knew
If you listened you would hear me
I need precious – just like you
