Lyrics Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson

Precious One

Precious one, precious one

Thought you stood so sweet upon your own two feet

Precious one, precious one

Thought there was no breeze could bring you to your knees

But I was wrong

Precious one, precious one

Should have been a light to guide you through the night

Precious one, precious one

Wanted to believe you had no need to grieve

But I was wrong

I was wrong, I was wrong

Should have wrapped my arms around you tight

To say, Im here

Whats done is done, whats done is done

Precious one, precious one

Wish there was a tide to bring me to your side

Precious one, precious one

Didnt want to run or leave it all undone

Oh, I was wrong
