Lyrics Annie Lennox

Annie Lennox

Precious

Precious little angel

Take a look at what you've done

Well I thought my time was over

But it's only just begun

Precious little angel

You're my own sweet turtle dove

Won't you stay with us for ever

In a bundle full of love

I was lost until you came

Precious little angel

Won't you spread your light on me

I was locked up in the darkness

Now you've come to set me free

I was covered up with sadness

I was drowned in my own tears

I've been cynical and twisted

I've been bitter all these years

I was lost until you came

I was lost until you came

And wouldn't I run a thousand miles

To be with you

And wouldn't I run a thousand miles

To be with you

Precious little angel

Tell me how can it be true

That such a gift from heaven

Has been sent for me and you

Precious little angel

Don't you worry don't you cry

When this bad old world has crumbled

I'll be standing at your side

I was lost until you came
