Precious Time Songtext

Precious Time"

Long days in summer
Walking by the sea
Warm rays of sunshine
Shining down on me
Dancing in the moonlight
Footprints in the sand
Lights in the harbour
Listening to the band

So many good times together
These are the memories I′ll treasure all my days

Precious time
Keeps moving on
Like these golden days of summer
I'll soon be gone
Precious time
Keeps moving on
I don′t wanna waste a second
Of your precious time


We've got no way of knowing
What will be, will be
But I'm there for you, babe
I know you′re there for me
So count every blessing
Count ′em one by one
Just keep on believing
Till the race is run

Life is for living
If I had the chance I know I'd do it all again

Precious time
Keeps moving on
Like these golden days of summer
I′ll soon be gone
Precious time
Keeps moving on
I don't wanna waste a second
Of your precious time

Someday soon
Heaven knows just when
We′ll be free
To live and love again
I can hope
For a better day
When all my fears and worries
Vanish far away


Precious time
Keeps moving on
Like a bird that's found her wings
I′ll soon be gone
Precious time
Keeps moving on
I don't wanna waste a second
Of your precious time
