Time is Precious

Watching the ice melt between us

Just faster than grass grows

Itís not the best that weíve seen us

But nothing else I'd have chose

Reminds me of a time

When anything could have come

Anything could have happened

What a fantastic feeling

Time is precious as you say it is

I wanna know that we didn't miss

It goes by quickly youíll soon find out

I wonít go down

Time is precious as you say it is

I wanna know that we didnít miss

It goes by quickly youíll soon find out

When you fight to resist

Emotion with a fist

An irresistible force will always

Prevail

The fortress goes crumbling down

Around you where you stand

What was once strong mortar

Is now a pile of sand

Time is just as precious as you say it is

I wanna spend it and know that we didn't miss

I've dodged so many bullets that Iím careful now

I wonít go down

Time is just as precious as you say it is

I wanna spend it and know that we didn't miss

I've dodged so many bullets that I'm careful now

From reckless to recluse

And sometimes back again

Left wondering what's the use

Of a life of mischief spent

Makes cool the desert sun

The piece of mind that you gave me

Absolve me for things I've done

Only that can save me

Time is just as precious as you say it is

I wanna spend it and know that we didn't miss

I've dodged so many bullets that I'm careful now

I wonít go down

Time is just as precious as you say it is

I wanna spend it and know that we didnít miss

Iíve dodged so many bullets that Iím careful now
