Precious

The ebb and flow of the tide

Will carry me forth into your arms

And though I'll miss you tonight

The thought of your love keeps me warm

As the moon comes out over the water

Precious and too sweet

I shall pray love your soul to keep

The river sleeping sound

I shall be dreaming deep of you

Soul do keep thee

Rife and weepy

Calling out to you

The dip and roar of the crowd

Will dizzy me forth into your arms

And if we pass it all around

We'll be of the same point of view

As the world spins round and here everafter

Precious and too sweet

I shall pray love your soul to keep

And I lay me gently down

I shall be dreaming deep of you

On a bed of silver sand

I'll take you lightly by the hand

And we'll dance on by the moon

I shall be dreaming deep of you

Shattered, dreamy

Calm and sweetly

Fool enough for two

(...)

(Do it for thy true love take)

(...)

When the stars play hide and seek

I shall be dreaming deep of you (I shall be dreaming)

Precious and too sweet

I shall pray love your soul to keep (I shall be praying)

On a bed of silver sand

I'll take you lightly by the hand (I shall be dreaming)

And we'll dance on by the moon

I shall be dreaming deep of you (I shall be praying)

Precious and too sweet

I shall pray love your soul to keep
