This Precious Time

You’ve been keeping me lonely      You’ve been keeping me down        And I’m sitting here wondering     Why I’m still hanging around The night’s grown cold babe       Can’t you see the signs?      Ah there’s no use wasting   This precious time Look out your window     Ah can’t you see?     That the sun is getting fast For you and me           Ah you’ve grown hard babe   Can’t you see the signs?     Ah there’s no use wasting   This precious time Well I should be out seeking     Instead of hiding        Yeah I should be out laughing        Instead of crying crying crying ’Coz you’ve been keeping me lonely      You’ve been keeping me down      And I’m sitting here thinking to myself Why I’m sticking around When you no longer hear me    And your eyes can’t see   What this precious time Means to someone like me Oh I wanna start living    Life’s for the taking      And I’ve gotta start living    If I wanna be tasting tasting tasting This precious tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime
