Precious Time Songtext
von Paul Carrack

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 harbor
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 want to 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 want to 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 our fears and worries
Vanish far away

Precious time keeps moving on
Like a bird that found a wing I'll soon be gone
Precious time keeps moving on
I don′t want to waste a second of your precious time
