Precious Things
by Paul Felton

The feelings that I have with you are familiar as the sky
The things we have in common are too many to deny
We like the same friendly bar, the same kind of music
For the same kind of wild and restless heart

These precious things we share
Are they really all that rare
Or just enticing us to play our parts, Oh-oh-oh
Is it for real, this love we seem to feel
Or a trick for trying to ease our lonely hearts

The warmth of your body lingers on the sheets
A delicate reminder of the comfort that we seek
The gentle wordless glance we each know how to read
Or do we really know each other at all?

These precious things we share
Are they really all that rare
Or just enticing us to play our parts, Oh-oh-oh
Is it for real, this love we seem to feel
Or a trick for trying to ease our lonely hearts

I don't know, I don't care
I just hope it is taking us somewhere

So I’m trying to be careful not to lose my head
With so many expectations we could wind up fooled instead
Steady as she goes, heaven only knows
If what we have will carry us ahead

These precious things we share
Are they really all that rare
Or just enticing us to play our parts, Oh-oh,
Is this a true love affair, the answer to my prayer
Or a trick for trying to heal a broken heart

Is this a true love affair, the answer to my prayer
Or a trick for trying to heal my broken heart
